Your eyes are fogged up
Yet they seem to see
Right into my soul

A city of strange sights
Something sinister is hiding beyond the lights
Your comfortable ignorance blinds you from the war
I wonder if the fight is worth it anymore
The calm babble of a fountain near
Contrasts the cries for help barely reaching my ear
The place where our humanity is lost
And we leave one another to rot
I used to think myself a giving person
But I have since learned my lesson
I ask a man with a bourgeoisie air
For change to help pay my train fare
His face tightens when he looks at me
"Sorry,
I spent it all on overpriced coffee,"
And for another night I'm stuck here

Many-colored square of cotton,
Good for head or neck, back pocket,
Some artist sweetly brought this in
A weaving Davy Crockett.
We like the many uses for a single cotton cloth,
Just as we like the many spices in a single vegetable broth.
We like the roots of trees from which trunk and branches spring;
We like the Deepest Joy there Is, within which is everything.
Which is, indeed, all things.

The world falls upon me,
So heavy, Yet I outlive it,
Piece by piece fixing life.

People keep asking me
"What do you want your life to look like in five years?"
they always cringe when I say
"I just want to fight long enough to open my eyes tomorrow morning."
