Feb 2012
Smile with weight and pride.
Throw away your keys.
Walk like invisible music is playing,
somewhere close, by your side.

Choose an ugly flavour.
Rule from an alien territory.
Stand amidst traffic, let it pass.
See an ant dying, save her.

Throw up, spill a secret, cross limits, and.
Smell a whirlpool forming.
Hide behind a curtain.
Die in no man's land.

Elevate and stay.
Use your nerve and bone.
Because, when you see from up close,
None of your life, is your own.
