Cylinders

Toilet paper tubes are mounting up,

Evidence of both my frugality and my first world privileges.

Kleenex is so much more expensive, and

handkerchiefs are better suited to tears than snot.

But better still,

The cats are thrilled!

And what is more healing than play?

They bounce them, chase them,

Spin and pounce,

And bring joy throughout the house.
