#1052 gage

i was once a symbol of status, of greatness
i had weight, a special home in every house
i was a gift for special transitional occasions 

now
i am a relic
a discarded ornament
to be found in the discount sale bin

have you ever wondered
      if you've outlived your purpose
      known that your prime is past
there is no wondering for me
