down my breastbone it will always trickle...we're ready

[senyen]

i decided today that human beings would be happier living without houses
we are messy animals
constantly dropping and crumbling and splashing and scattering

in our wakes we leave little trails of personal detritus
bushy tails of our human mess that follow us around, tapping the heels of our polished shoes
why not just be honest?
.
.

.
so many people live like pigs!
why not just move to the forest and be done with it?
none of this shiny facade that we bring to each other
pretending when we smile and shake hands that there isn't hair on our bathroom floors and bread crumbs in the kitchen

we would be happier naked and rolling in leaves

i receive visions when i ride the bus
revelations that descend in short, colorful pops
little bubblewrap moments of enlightment...

i want to buy another copy of the Tao Te Ching
i want to read it again
and again and again and again....
it makes me feel like music
i like things that bring that part of me to life
the best things in my life have an inherent soundtrack; they bring it with them when they take their turn with me, so i always know when something is good

i feel vast like the ocean
an ocean that feels bold enough to ascend into the sky...
