The ‘thing’ about things
Is their relative unimportance
In ‘the world’, this world, I mean.

It seems to me, ‘words rule’. Sometimes
I find the words of pasts debunked,
Defaced, and demystified.

The thing about ‘stuff’
Is if relativity is understood
In ‘everworlds’, especially, here.

It occurs to me, words can change
Their feelings, just as surely
As we will ‘develop’ peace…

The thing about stuff
Is we can’t devise enough
Nothingness to delete us.

'Afterthought'

I think,
Stuff and
Things, when
Purchased, aren't
worth much later on.
