One of the illustrations from the Hibernation 2 show with Rick Barnes. This poem illustrated the things one holds close to them, love, recognition, relationships, friends, time, family, money and whatever you want to place in the box...

All these lovely things I have

I've needed all along

I always keep them close to me,

That's where my things belong.

I've spent my lifetime gathering them,

Doing what I must.

And now my life is filled with things

That break or die or rust.
