why tho

What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

If having is all you want, having is all you get.

Those who are greedy for your time, your labour, and your money only talk about having things. Have this! Have that! Have everything!

Look at what I have!
Look at what they have!!
Look at what you could have if you only did XYZ!!!

If you want to actually be content and at peace, stay away from the screens, get off that phone, go outside and live your own life.

Figure out what you want for yourself and do that.
Everything else is a waste of your time.

How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?

Slow down. Breathe. Enjoy the sunshine. Go swim. See the sights. Connect with that person.

Do that thing you always wanted to do.

If you can’t, what’s holding you back? Figure that out.

Then go and find out which underpaid single mother already did what you always wanted to do, and follow her lead.

Daily Affirmations, if wanted:

• Your life is a garden: Water what nourishes, remove what poisons, and be mindful of the weeds, they pop up regularly.

• Grow at your own pace. There’s only one you.

• Rest well: It takes time to recuperate, and you need it, body and soul.

• Take that time off you’ve been meaning to take, and do something positive you genuinely enjoy.

• Give people their flowers when they’re around to receive them.

• Be a good friend. That sometimes means saying, “Thus far and no further,” and meaning it.

• Boundaries: Yours and others. Respect them.

• Read at least one book of fiction every year. You don’t have to tell anybody about it. Just enjoy the experience.

• Find that music album Younger You loved and listen to it all the way through.

lacrimosa

it starts in the heart

and sweeps out in a wave,
up the larynx
into a mouth, wide open

a cry so loud
all who have eyes shed tears
and all who can see
weep
with anger
and anguish

for now
and again now
and again
now
and again now, now
now
there is no time
between the call
and response

there is no time
to wait
for now it is life or death:
the care of peace or the chaos of despair

niteynite

crickets chirping
another kind of silence
love-

leeway is a tricky thing
how much exactly is needed?

all this outside
reflecting off the green
caterwauling
confusing garfieldinfused
day-

dreams are so damn tricky.

reach for the stars
they say, and mean
“not too far”
because events so big
shift horizons
and suck you in

tonight, tonight
so bright

tonight, tonight
you better take care
of that pumpkin patch
before fairy god-

vraaaaaoooooooooooom!
mother******!!
it’s past midnight!!

ah,
these are the times.
