seeking to amass only the rare
one-of-a-kind, museum-worthy
as in “better homes than yours”
shunning the average stuff
dreading the label “ordinary”
defining one’s self-esteem
a lifetime of chasing the latest
purely deserving admiration
worries over what others say
self-imposed no mercy mission
endless ennui with le dernier cri
don’t you see it matters not to me
