A Consumer's Plea

Please --

No more things.

No more gifts.
No more HGTV.
No more food wrapped in packages.
No more appliances.
No more tools.
No more shelves.
No more books
              Or papers
              Or typefaces.

Please let us not mark
our appreciation
with dumb money in a bow.

Please let us not box
our past, piles upon piles,
in dusty attics and basements full of cobwebs.

Please let us not fill
our minds 
with the shit and things of this silly place.
