“If you live in harmony with nature you will never be poor; if you live according what others think, you will never be rich.”

— Seneca, Moral Letters to Lucilius

There’s a picture of you

Backlit by the sunshine

You sit at the dining room table

And you hold your cat

There’s a picture of you

Surround by majesty and mountains

You’re backpacking in the backwoods

And you turn and smile so brightly

There’s a picture of you with tussled hair

Bathed in a golden glow

You’re at work by the exit door

And your dimple is so perfect

These moments captured in just one imagine

Captivate me, draw me helplessly

Deeper and deeper in love, I can’t help

But send one back with all the love I have to

Offer in my eyes and my smile

In a word, I’m yours

[organnyhernanny]

I have lived in colors that others have never seen

I can tell others the difference in shades and hues

The way the light gets sucked into them

The way the moon reflects off of them

The way they shimmer when there’s a storm

But they will never see

You have lived in colors that others have never known

And when you tell me the shades and hues

I recognize them like a memory, yours in color and mine in black and white

You know them like a painting you’ve seen of a place you’ve stood in

The deep bleeding Scarlett reds and soul sucking blacks

Shadows and whispers of past cries echoing down the hallways of your mind as I show you the portfolio of my life

And you smile because you know, you know the cerulean stain and where it comes from

And you take my hand and pull me close because you know, you know the jade swatch in the corner and why it’s hidden

We have lived in colors others could never imagine

But we can and we do and we will paint the future together from now on

What Makes a Man

What makes a man

Is being gentle

When we’re irate

It’s being humble

When we are great

It’s finding love

Amongst the hate

What makes a man

Is supporting one another

Building each other up

Picking up the pieces

When everything goes toes up

It’s shaking hands

To heal rifts

It’s being generous

With our gifts

What makes a man

Is helping friends

And making amends

It’s recognizing mistakes

And fixing them with haste

Boys may fight

But men do what’s right

That’s what makes a man

Is this it? Are we just supposed to keep working on ourselves for the rest of time? Uggh.

“I hope I haven’t already driven past my greatest moments. I hope there is something beautiful on the horizon that’s just as impatient as I am. Something so eager, It wants to meet me halfway.”

— Rudy Francisco, Helium

Our souls are intertwined so thoroughly that they are now inseparable.

We'll never be seperate entities again.

Not even in the next lifetime.

"All that a man has to say or do that can possibly concern mankind, is in some shape or other to tell the story of his love,—to sing; and, if he is fortunate and keeps alive, he will be forever in love. This alone is to be alive to the extremities." —Henry David Thoreau

On Foxes

eṭlu ša sibbat nēši iṣbatuni ina nāri iṭṭubu ša sibbat šēlebi iṣbatuni ussēzib "The man who seized the lion’s tail sank in the river; he who seized the fox’s tail was saved." — ABL 555 r.3-6 (Neo-Assyrian cuneiform letter, date and name missing)

πόλλ' οἶδ' ἀλώπηξ, ἀλλ' ἐχῖνος ἓν μέγα “The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog one big thing.” (Archilochus, 7th c. BCE)

“We communicate like the burrows of foxes, in silence and darkness, under ground.” — Henry David Thoreau, letter to Ralph Waldo Emerson, February 12, 1843

“Be like the fox who makes more tracks than necessary, some in the wrong direction. Practice resurrection.” — Wendell Berry, “Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front,” 1970
