Disorganized Attachment

Disoriented and stripped of their cabinet, two found drawers float off the wall. Strands of fabric, twine, and rope trail between the suspended boxes. An umbilical cord?

The suspended drawers cradle familiar objects. Thread, string, tape, buttons, screws, shower curtain rings, push pins, door knobs, glue, fishing line, bungee cord, rubber bands, padlocks, and more.

Kept. But for what? Future use? An afternoon of I-Spy? Or simply kept because the drawers and their contents are forgotten? After all, sorting and organizing the collection would require remembering, attention, and care.
