Things, Things, Things and More Things, Things

Things, things, things 
And more things, things
Made of glossy metals,

Faux wood, faux stone, faux plastics 
And other faux 

Some with real labels 
Designed by faux gods

Purchased here, there and everywhere
On sale

Stack them in your closets, your cabinets
And your attic
In their original boxes 
With their original tags

Never to be taken out 
Except faux the estate sale
