red cans

red cans

red cans glued together,

different from their original purpose.

no longer being a container,

now empty and light.

having a new function,

keeping them from the garbage mounds.

taken for recycling,

keeping the look of cans.

now it is a sculpture,

of empty cans glued together.

making an art piece,

rather than more trash.

looking at it is pleasing,

just makes you think.

it is easy to recycle,

if you just think about it.
