Provisions for a Disorganized System

In my pantry where cans 

of green beans dated
1989 have been kicked
     into place
underneath dried lentils
and other leg-
                       umes,
and held prisoner
by some vile,
separated
salad dressing, and questionable
soda crackers
in a box with one torn corner,
you’d agree that I never
managed to become
self-organizing.
Therefore, I am not
part of the living
system.
