shopped out

you feel like buying something.
but you don't know what.
there is nothing that you need.
and yet the urge to splurge
and purchase some useless thing
comes over you.
so you walk the stores with
a pocket full money hoping
against hope that you will
find something you can't live
without. but it's useless.
you go home and get online.
amazon, you browse for hours.
still nothing. you look at
red chairs. blue chairs.
pants, shoes, another tv.
but there is nothing you can
buy that you don't already have
in twos or threes. it's the end
of your shopping life
as you know it.
