Museum of thing
you can look, distance please
you shan’t touch
you keep it there
unscathed

Library of thing
you can touch, ever so timely
you shan’t own
you bring it back
having seen better days

Shop of thing
you can own, exchange really
you shan’t return
you stay away
made to decay

Then there is that
there, out of reach
unknown actually
coveted

Thing: the three preons
into human existence
and a fourth as if a prion
folded to rule them all
