The Thing

Suhanna Saini


There is always the next best Thing.

Another Thing to buy, another Thing to gawk at, another Thing to want.

When Thing rules your life, there is no other way to look except at Thing itself.

Thing controls you

your wants, your needs, your actions.


It consumes you,

completely and wholeheartedly until you are blind to anything else.

Thing can take on many forms

a bag,

a shirt,

a pair of shoes.


Maybe

a necklace,

a painting,

a car,

a house,

a mansion,


A lifestyle


There are no bounds to Thing; it can be anywhere at anytime

you never see it creeping into every

nook and cranny of life.


So, Dear Reader

Remember

your life isn't just Thing, but more

You deserve more than material.

a life of happiness

content

with sense of ambition.

Not Greed


With Thing the essence of life is taken away.


Thing creates comparisions with those you hold dear.

Thing draws you to it's never ending cycle of envy.

it's the light you think you need.

But it goes dark in the blink of an eye

the ephemeral nature giving you only a split second of joy.


Competition,

Dissatisfaction,

the crave for Thing become more.

Like a beating heart, you need it to live

Like air you breathe, it smells so sweet

Thing is an addiction.


Get out while you can.
