opening the suitcase revealed encased treasure/in the form of clean near-new clothing/packed for a trip/i had taken early this year

i had gotten home and not unpacked/and after that had used the suitcase/as a stand for my work clothing

here was a collarless shirt I had thought lost/and a hawaiian shirt i had forgotten existed/and underwear made of genuine cloth and not/the stretchy plastic schlock they hawk nowadays

it was delightfully like a time capsule/so when i got home after this trip/i on purpose didn’t unpack it again

cache me if you can
