Nicky Tee

Dictionary

Cornucopia is the equivalent
To menagerie, a variety
Of animals, a menagerie
Of animals 

But I can imagine a menagerie
Of furniture too, a beautiful
Excess of anything

You would say what
A curious menagerie of
Furniture
to express
That it looks cool

And that furniture,
As furniture does, appears
As a bunch of strange
Animals roaming about
The room

I was actually thinking
Of myriade, like the
Myriade of décor in
Our egos

But myriade is
for abstract ideas
