It was a day like today Thursday winds and blues when I was ushered on the volcanic soil It was a day like yesterday Wednesday lights and blooms when I prepared to leave the womb and touch the web of the world The disconnect from the placenta was the start of the absentness inquisitive of this voyage the forgone past I left For what karma should I learn? in a world that I am perceived as weird and out of control who can teach me to be? For what karma should I learn? as a non conformist creature one who can't acquiesce in this inauthentic existence It was a day like today A Thursday of torrential rain When I felt the pain of the world the unfaded tears of the masses It was a day like tomorrow A Friday of hope and love when I long to make a difference Fuel my being with zest and joy

My Birthday
It was a day like today Thursday winds and blues when I was ushered on the volcanic soil It was a day like yesterday Wednesday lights and blooms when I prepared to leave the womb and touch the web of the world The disconnect from the placenta was the start of the absentness inquisitive of this voyage the forgone past I left For what karma should I learn? in a world that I am perceived as weird and out of control who can teach me to be? For what karma should I learn? as a non conformist creature one who can't acquiesce in this inauthentic existence It was a day like today A Thursday of torrential rain When I felt the pain of the world the unfaded tears of the masses It was a day like tomorrow A Friday of hope and love when I long to make a difference Fuel my being with zest and joy
Found it even hard to use the word "my birthday". I don't celebrate anything and people increasingly find this weird!
