Go to bed mad
Wake up happy
Stop remembering
Stop blaming others
For your sadness
Eat more fruit
Stop chasing yourself
Stop trying to kill all the flies
They are there for a reason
The flies are not bullets
They feed the birds.
Every day is a new day.
Hamburgers happen
The yellow truck fucks the green truck
This one gets another toy
This one learns a new language
Ich esse obst.
Du isst gemuse.
Let’s meet on the toilet
And see how things turn out.
Love inspires
Fear destroys
It has to be hard sometimes.
Leaves fall
They grow back.
And fall and grow back
Over and over.
It’s never totally over.
We’ve broken the seal
And now we lay along the shore
Waiting for a morning
That barely makes sense
A ring on your toe
Whiskey in a wine glass
I’m leaving
I don’t know why
There’s sun in my coffe cup
Gold on my plate
Breaking rocks together
Is the music
That keeps us
Moving
Never learning some things
Is the lesson
Never learning
Together
Forever
Until it’s time
For the leaves to fall again
And again
And again
The leaves are green
And red and brown
The leaves are beautiful
