To Keep Cardboard Boxes or Recycle

By Adam Phillips

In "To Keep Cardboard Boxes or Recycle," the poet invites readers into a world where the mundane meets the profound. This collection explores the delicate balance between sentiment and practicality, using the humble cardboard box as a metaphor for our memories, aspirations, and the clutter we carry through life. Each poem reflects on the choices we make, the emotions tied to physical objects, and the bittersweet weight of nostalgia. With evocative imagery and heartfelt musings, the poet examines themes of preservation versus letting go, urging us to reflect on what we choose to hold onto and why. Through playful language and poignant revelations, "To Keep Cardboard Boxes or Recycle" encourages a deeper understanding of our personal narratives, ultimately asking: what do we truly value, and what can we afford to release?
