student: can i borrow a pencil

teacher: i don't know, CAN you?

student: yes, also colloquial irregularities occur frequently in any language and since you and the rest of our present company understood my intended meaning, being particular about the distinctions between "can" and "may" is purely pedantic and arguably pretentious

Broken

Begin the journey

Make mistakes

Stare at the walls

And into the space

Fight your battles

Lost and empty

Begin again

Build from chaos

Mend the broken
