So, using the response from Morgan and David, here is draft two:
I am a self proclaimed pack-rat...
Just like my Grandmother.
A hoarder of knowledge
and school supplies.
Each weekend
I open the door to my father
reminding me of the empty filing cabinet
backed up
against the blank white wall
with its supposed contents
carpeting instead, my closet floor.
Each day,
when questions
to which no one actually wants answers
are asked,
I am the one to respond
pulling and searching from me,
the filing cabinet,
with those discarded closeted files
scattered in piles,
filling the pre-frontal cortex
of my brain.
