I can write about twelve of them but not about one Three go to sadness one goes to fun one goes to anger one goes to idiots one goes to rush two go to happiness one goes to floaters one goes to stoicism the one I can't write about is Joy- it's always hidden

13 Ways of Looking at Life
what a waste of time fun in the moment Joy can not climb love is a hill go down from the bedroom and read are you listening still love is a skill best in mediation like a drug, prescribed by some shadowy, scrunching, salesman bent on levitation what a waste of time all alone and on your own moan moan what a waste of time

"For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told." Some fight to be remembered. Some slip, and tumble downwards. The path of the rough hill- of jagged thistle. that they plow through and blow thistle to us all a pain we must remember better then a fight.

On Turning her up in her Nest with the Plough Wee, sleekit, cow’rin’, tim’rous beastie, O what a panic’s in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty, Wi’ bickering brattle! I *** be laith to rin an’ chase thee Wi’ murd’ring pattle! I’m truly sorry man’s dominion Has broken nature’s social union, An’ justifies that ill opinion Which makes thee startle At me, thy poor earth-born companion, An’ fellow-mortal! I doubt na, whiles, but thou may thieve; What then? poor beastie, thou maun live! A daimen-icker in a thrave ‘S a sma’ request: I’ll get a blessin’ wi’ the lave, And never miss’t! Thy wee bit housie, too, in ruin! Its silly wa’s the win’s are strewin’: And naething, now, to big a new ane, O’ foggage green! An’ bleak December’s winds ensuin’ Baith snell an’ keen! Thou saw the fields laid bare and waste An’ weary winter comin’ fast, An’ cozie here, beneath the blast, Thou thought to dwell, Till, crash! the cruel coulter past Out thro’ thy cell. That wee bit heap o’ leaves an’ stibble Has cost thee mony a weary nibble! Now thou’s turned out, for a’ thy trouble, But house or hald, To thole the winter’s sleety dribble An’ cranreuch cauld! But, Mousie, thou art no thy lane In proving foresight may be vain: The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men Gang aft a-gley, An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain, For promised joy. Still thou art blest, compared wi’ me! The present only toucheth thee: But, oh! I backward cast my e’e On prospects drear! An’ forward, tho’ I canna see, I guess an’ fear!

To _________ _.-_.
in the time of the perfect map the sails have been set but I don't know where I'm going yet over the waves I float as the map tells me more not daring yet, to reach for my oar for if my oar hits the ocean wrong or if my eagerness too strong gone, gone with the map gone, gone with the peace gone, gone is the silence, my centerpiece across the strait, perhaps is a perfect golden isle but some other will find it soon as I follow the file what could be forgiven if i threw the map into the deep depths of the water from the deepest solitude?

The first spring rain patters softly on the glass until a quiet settles with no gradual courtesy and all you hear is a faraway gutter carrying all winter's ice and snow away and a drawling fan of constant hope

The first spring rain
The man seems only happy to explain "In our world" he said, glancing quickly at the judge "we don't let those people meet with others" He pointed at a group of white-clad men in the corner "These scientists have found it shuts them down quick, quick and easy thats what I like to say. Just gotta take everything they love" The bald man laughs.

There's a curtain between us, me and you So what else could I do? but build it up till the red bricks stretch to the white clouds and you can't tell them apart. What happened to my people on the other side? What happened since we had to hide from their yacht club? Their towering windows from here to the shroud? and you can't tell it apart. I had to break the windowpane to build the wall Are they still standing tall in their gilded dust? My tongue was salted, cut, and disallowed and you can't tell us apart anymore. We are the white clouds We are the bluebirds They are the red wall They are the black blur. and you can't tell us apart anymore. We are the mighty They are the proud We are the ready They are the loud. and you can't tell us apart anymore.
