Day 12: Favorite Quote

“The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.” -E.E Cummings

Can't help when you cackle like a witch

What can be done? Say who you are, really say it in your life and in your work. Tell someone out there who is lost, someone not yet born, someone who won’t be born for 500 years. Your writing will be a record of your time, it can’t help but be. But more importantly if you’re honest about who you are you’ll help that person be less lonely in their world because that person will recognise him or herself in you and that will give them hope. It’s done so for me, and I have to keep rediscovering it, its profound importance in my life. Give that to the world, rather than selling something to the world, don’t allow yourself to be tricked into thinking that the way things are is the way the world must work and that in the end selling is what everyone must do. Try not to.

“This is from ee cummings: ‘to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting’. The world needs you, it doesn’t need you at a party having read a book about how to appear smart at parties – these books exist, and they’re tempting – but resist falling into that trap, the world needs you at the party starting real conversations, saying ‘I don’t know,’

[I carry your heart with me,(I carry it in]

my heart)i am never without it(anywhere

i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done

by only me is your doing,my darling)

                                                      i fear

no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want

no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)

and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

-E. E. Cummings

In love with my best friend so I modified "I like my body when it is with your body" by ee Cummings.

I like my body when it's with your body. Always such a new and exciting thing. Muscles better and nerves more. I like your body. I like what it does, I like its how's. I like how it moves and how you breathe. I'd like to feel the spine of your body and its bones. And the trembling soft smoothness of your skin. Your skin of which I will again and again and again kiss. I'd like to kiss here and there on you. I'd like to slowly stroke the shocking fuzz of your electric touch(,) and parting flesh. Eyes big and wholy pure. Purer than sapphire. Purer than my adoration for you, which admittedly harbors the sins I carry in my lust, for my attention is forever transfixed on you. And possibly I like the thrill of wanting my body under yours. The thrill of wanting and wanting but knowing I may never achieve your attention as how you've achieved mine. I like my body whenever your eyes look into mine. And when we bump into each other while walking side by side. Equals in every way, even when I yearn to be beneath you for as long as you wish.
