Material Anxiety
Anxious,
It's new, it's vibrant,
It's so me!
Must have it.
Anxious,
It's cheap, it's art,
Won't fit!
Can't have it.
Anxiety born of greed,
Selfishness, social need.
Not one or two but all!
A bag, a coat, some plaid!
Obsessed beyond capability
Want all over budget,
"It's human nature!"
It's a sickness
A disease, born of riches.
Tired of wishes.
Photos, bookmarks,
Catalogues, webstores.
I am a victim.
Victim of need
Obsessive wish lists
To compensate
For a lack of attention with years
To go back.
-Kathia M. Landeros
