this is what you shall do: love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants… have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young...

“Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.”

barber and barrow.
The green vines winding along your white picket fence protect you from the life you can’t look upon without laughing. You sip your cold cup of coffee and lean back in your armchair, while your rose tinted glasses make the entropy more connected.
But the home we have made has a white, cool bed where we sleep entwined together like a pearl in an oyster. And the day lilies bloom right outside of...

the colors.
It seems ages have passed since I have been moved by purpose; it is a meaningless word these days. My muse is dead and gone. I watched as she was tied to the mast of that marvelous ship. It was docked at her shore for so long now and I knew it was waiting for the sun to set. I stared lazily as the wind carried her away. She became one with the current.

I was driving through the valley at some undistinguishable time between nightfall and daybreak and the music was taking me away from the road and the earth and the memory of your...
the sky.
to be calmed. to be soothed. to feel the steady tide. to hear you whisper to me, to feel your breath on my neck. to know that you are being held in the palm of a lover. to be touched by the fingertips of something beautiful. to be because of you. this is what I want. this is what I need. to be caressed so perfectly, without a single touch.
silence and distance give such...
the water.
while sitting in the deepest parts of my cavern, I can hear every single grain of sand slide to the bottom of the hourglass. where does the time go once it becomes the past? I had a dream where I am walking down a dirt road in the middle of a secluded town. it is near nowhere in particular and there is nothing extraordinary about it. there are maple trees providing shade and a cool breeze.

I do believe that I pay far too much attention to detail. I have my understanding of the human body. I have perfection intertwined with the dips and curves of the english language. I have my recognition and appreciation of beauty. I have my love for one’s existence. I have my answers to your questions. I have tiny bits of my consciousness, shaped into a sentence. I am strawberry and...
