New Prompt! Write a poem or story that uses the following title: Losing the Old, Gaining the New

LOSING THE OLD, GAINING THE NEW!


I've sprung a new damn leak
and know just what to do--
I'll make up a new plan:
losing the old, gaining the new!

I've been this route before,
and know just what to do!
Have a new stock in hand:
losing the old, gaining the new!

A zip-loc fixes leaks,
I'll try to make things "do."
Know one will suffice and,
I'll lose the old,and gain the new!

I know you can't relate
can't figure out my "coup"
and cannot understand
"losing the old, gaining the new!"
