You think because your skin is wrinkle and blemish free you have achieved a great feat of life being thirty or forty or fifty-three looking 23 *** The last book you read was only done so that you can name the last book you read Your soul is as paper thin as is your skin hold on yes your shell, vehicle, vessel and its drapings, anointings, adornings are very beautiful you do know that none of that at all is actually you your body fat percentage and credit score is as important to you as the birth of your children as the day of your first wedding as the day of your second divorce hold on yes I'm calling you shallow hold on no I'm not saying that I'm better I will say at least what I do I do because it has a purpose I do because it has a meaning I know that lives are more important than taxes and their brackets I know that you do not stay just because of what others might say if you go What you do is because. . . What you believe is because. . . Right down to the very words you choose why do you do anything that you do that’s right go ahead and say it © Christopher F. Brown 2015

Because You’re Supposed To
You think because your skin is wrinkle and blemish free you have achieved a great feat of life being thirty or forty or fifty-three looking 23 *** The last book you read was only done so that you can name the last book you read Your soul is as paper thin as is your skin hold on yes your shell, vehicle, vessel and its drapings, anointings, adornings are very beautiful you do know that none of that at all is actually you your body fat percentage and credit score is as important to you as the birth of your children as the day of your first wedding as the day of your second divorce hold on yes I'm calling you shallow hold on no I'm not saying that I'm better I will say at least what I do I do because it has a purpose I do because it has a meaning I know that lives are more important than taxes and their brackets I know that you do not stay just because of what others might say if you go What you do is because. . .
