Things

A Poem by Jeff Bresee
"

but know this that when the day’s done...

"

Things to adorn yourself.

Things for your home.

Things of a thousand kind, 

what do you own?

 

Gather it all til you have everything,

but know this that when the day’s done,

 

despite all your things

you don’t have a damn thing

if the sun sets…

and you’ve got no one.
