The universe has a millions signs that say no, but only a few that say yes. ///// Everything is fragile except the rope around your neck. ///// Just another day in paradise: exciting as a hole in the ground. ///// If you think with your **** expect a few headaches. ///// All the world's misery is caused by men who wear suits. ///// Sometimes, you must open a window just to let a little oxygen into your life. ///// My ancestors marched to war. I flew. Maybe there is such a thing as progress. ///// Why do we fall in love instead of rise in love? Because there's no such thing as a rise with a thud at the end. ///// Cat's know everything but divulge nothing. ///// Death waits patiently as a dead cat. They know each other very well. ///// Enough now, I am moving to Lake Michigan where I will hunt wolverines for a living and learn to eat ice. ///// Have to flee, there is a warrant out for me for everything I never did. ///// So difficult some mornings to face the ugly emptiness of the sober page ///// Wanted: a future without a perhaps. ///// If I turned wine into water, made the living dead, and called in demons would these be proclaimed miracles and I hailed as the new messiah? Might be dangerous. I imagine the sound of hammers and nails calling my name.    ~mce
