Browsing the bric-a-brac
wondering what still works
where in the world this stuff
comes from who arranges it
with almost apparent care
nothing fits as it should
can barely make a way through
the aisles of bookshelves
to the purple sofa in the center
just not comfortable enough
to think about bringing home
and the effort it would take
to move from this spot
we slide through the labyrinth
past the framed newspapers
of random-ish historical events
still relevant yet so easily discarded
