Stuff

A red push robot with a
silver heart on his chest
always cheers me up
when I'm feeling depressed,

a handful of rubber duckies
with devil horns on their heads,
a little plush purple
unicorn named Ned,

a goofy pink 
dinosaur hand puppet,
though my hand is way
too big to stick up it,

a faux jade Laughing Buddha
that glows in the dark,
a space-suited Snoopy
made by Hallmark,

some skeleton musicians
from the Day of the Dead,
a masked Mexican
Lucha Libre bobblehead,

I've got so much stuff
on my shelves and in nooks,
and that's not even
counting the books! - Jeff Barnes
