An Ode to Cable Ties
(aka: zip ties)
You held my work together when I need it the most:
You secured ugly orange snow fence
to those holey metal posts.
You wrapped around electric posts
when wiring wouldn't do.
How did I make it this long
without the wonders you pull through?
You hold pieces of my world
from the kennels to the cages,
just like you help the farmers
down throughout the ages.
My mailbox flap kept falling,
you shored it up so I can get my mail
while hanging proudly on the thing
like a bright green tail.
When I discovered Rust-o-leum, I wanted every hue,
but that was before I discovered
the wonder that is you!
