What Is This?

An aging man opens up boxes and sorts through the contents. He photographs and discusses and tries to make sense of it all. He posts irrelevant musings and then returns to once again determine how in the name of creation his apartment became so crowded with boxes of small soldiers. Eventually, it will all be photographed, described and repacked. In the meantime, he drones on….
