The Leftovers

the leftovers have no place to go

no relevant facts to show

an incomplete reaction

a conscious redaction

a perfectly good combination

when passed around for fun, 

the leftovers have no credence

a reminiscence of substance 

resigned to the category of forgery 

a downright culinary debauchery  

the leftovers are beneath most people

untangible and consumed for free

left sitting on a plate 

or used to relate 

to those less fortunate than us

the leftovers never cause a fuss
