I am collectible
Like a special edition Barbie
Or that rare holographic Charizard card
I'm a novelty
You want to put me on your shelf
Tell everyone you know I've been added to your collection
But it's all for the sake of having
Being able to say you've brushed shoulders with the rare and unusual
You're interested in the oohs and aahs
The inevitable questions
The giddy excitement of whispering my secrets
I don't blame you
How could I?
I collect too
Stories and tales infused in the bodies of the inanimate
I search for that which draws me closer to the chaos of our world
I am entropy embodied
My existence epitomizes the unknowable
The confusion and heartbreak
