WITH BUT ANOTHER DAY, WHAT WOULD I DO

Folder: 
JOURNAL #28

I want to

catch the moon

and race the stars

stare at the night

and see Osirus



I want to

laugh in my salad

dampen every green

see reality for the myth

that it is

and never regret nor forget

anything



I want to

learn the language of the universe

shake peace's own hand

meet adversity head on

and shout to the world

from every possible land



I want to

wink at debt

and laugh off its

albatross noose

call wealth up on the

line

and say you don't have me

fooled



I want to

see today

with the eyes of tomorrow

huge wonderous and ever bright

hug every moment from every

angle with vigor

and confidence

and watch time ignite



but most of all

I LONG to

be

a me the future

will look back on

with pride and

fond remberence

and hail these  

flushed scribblings

as something worth

thinking about
