When a black sheet has been
thrown over the moon
and a million lazy stars
have fallen from view
I hear the wind has
grown tired of traveling
I hear the sound of mandolins
crying in the mountains
I hear the rattle of
gypsy wheels
I hear the heavy hearts
of horses upon the
restless roads of
broken poetry ...

I think therefore I’m tired all the time…

Carry only a backpack into the future’s embrace,
Leave behind the luggage of yesterday’s trace.
It costs dearly to drag what’s past,
Travel light, for freedom holds fast.
Why do we insist to bring those heavy bags everywhere we go? Do we really need all that stuff where we’re heading?

TikTok or God?
It's better to laugh alone
After reading a book
Than to laugh with a
crowd in a pub
First one makes you
A knowledge hub
Another makes you
a wilful cub.

Life is punctuated with
pain wounds and scars

but all of nature trods
on the same threshold

nothings immune it is
la force du destin nous

bien sur la vie est dur
mais la mort tranquille

Bask me in your golden light.
Somersault me with such a beautiful sight.
Lull me with your calm waves.
I refuse to wake; I can’t be saved.
