celebration

acid and fire and sleet and spit and trees and rain and walks on the beach and heading nowhere and laughter and plantains and feet and numbness and crying and waking up and watching stars travel and coffins and paths and clothing and colors and the word yes and eyes watching and parents and rules and religion and anarchy and simplicity and curry and movies and take out and dumb people and the rate of motion expressed as distance over time and drugs and calico cats and coffee grounds and stories and marshmallows and toothpaste and breezes and orange juice and good morning hello i love you and i'll never forget the look on your face and blooming flowers and listening to something new and trains and dolphins and grammar school and tickling and cold tile and this is just the beginning of all that you know in one moment and this is what surrounds you and this is today tomorrow yesterday and this cannot fade and this is here and this is now and this is you and this is yes and yes is life.


my thoughts are scrambled eggs that i made in a pot with a fork. hope springs eternal. a wish can only come true if you live long enough to forget your expectations.

it starts with a bang.
