The Completist and His Collections of Impractical Things

He obtains fancy chopsticks, hardly uses them, forgets he has them. He drapes ornamental trees with cheap pocket watches let’s the batteries run dry hardly ever looks at them. A suitable receptacle, a container or an old cigar box must be filled up with whatever is small enough to be collectable. Seashells he keeps in chests along with unusual pencils, pens, and pen knives. There are other acquired gewgaws and fripperies. His poetry is a collection also. One day he will move on to yet another creative collection of his ever expanding hollowness.
