Stagnation
I like when things remain the same;
Stagnation is my favorite game.
I play so well I never lose;
What’s set in stone makes me enthuse.
While others might redecorate
Or even move, I can’t relate.
New furniture does not entice;
My stuff is old, but still, it’s nice.
It isn’t normal, I’ve been told,
Becoming worse as I grow old.
I wish I knew why I eschew
The new to stick with tried and true.
