Ode to Things

"I have a crazy, crazy love of things,

I like pliers,
and scissors,

I love cups,

and rings,

and bowls--

not to speak of course of hats,

I love all things, not just the grandest,

also the infinitely small,

thimbles and spurs,

plates and flower vases.

Oh yes, the planet is sublime!..."

-Pablo Neruda
