Of course I must and I think I do.

Daily writing prompt
Do you believe in minimalism?

Of course I must and I think I do,

Is that a sentence or a billet- doux?

I’ll leave that decision up to you,

You see less is more,

Is a phrase I adore,

Whether it’s right or is a crushing bore,

For who am I to decide the fate,

Of those who can’t resist the supermarket wait,

To queue for things and thus be late,

Late home, Late for Work or lose their place,

It’s adding stress to an addictive pace,

They are happy though to win the race,

I for one will avoid,

Purchasing that new android,

A robot, a phone admittedly the idea I’d toyed,

Amazon I searched and the Which magazine,

The possibilities seemed obscene,

Then I decided I’d just be mean,

Overly consumptive is a dying trend,

But where will all this misery end,

With no economy the Politician’s fate will be a bell end.

Crowded supermarket checkout with many shoppers and shopping carts
