Whats mine is mine,
Whats yours you can keep,
If you borrow-return it,
Otherwise-no sleep.

I've worked hard to get it,
You just take what you can,
These items are precious,
You just haven't began.

Any damage will anger me,
You will pay, do not doubt,
So you'd better be careful,
Do you want me to shout?

Its not that expensive,
Did I claim any other?
It's just special to me,
Do you have life cover?

I know its a trinket,
My memories are links,
You've never even noticed,
In between endless blinks.

Do not move without permission,
It will never leave that door,
You have lots of money,
Whilst I'm really poor.

These items, my existence,
They dictate what I am,
I know what you're thinking,
My life is a sham.

    Holding on to my sanity
    Opening jars and tubes
    Rectangles and cubes
    Drowning in floral scents
    Reveling

    things bought
    and the money spent
    are they really heaven sent?

    things of this world
    they do not last
    so why your lot in
    do you

    Grande Designs

    All perfect packaging,
    In the displays of
    Psychedelia and stark.
    Inaccessible and utterly unique,
    Snobbish hysteria.
    Strange
