I find I become more minimalistic all the time. I think I've whittled down belongings to the bare, then take another swoop through the house and find more. It's a work in progress that will never be done.
More
Be careful what you wish for
The American mantra 'more'
Abundant desires
'More' retort repertoire
Things accumulating
Each nook and cranny fills
The closets are a nightmare
More, everywhere stuff spills
Every second, minute, hour
Days to weeks, months to years
Aches and wrinkles share space
More, body souvenirs
Living with fulfilled 'more' wish
More, more, and even more
Fifty years now have passed
Nevermore a 'more' servitor!
