To these authors

Where can you find
A woman to relate to your soul
Through your colour ?
Maggie Nelson and I
Both talk of blue as a cure
When we haven’t stated our disease.
I learn in strings, in bits
Ray Bradbury says it is okay
He teaches me to step on landmines
Each morning.
To explode
And spend the day putting
Together my pieces
Making glue out of words
Making blue out of blood.

there’s The One Thing
i love about Gary Keller:
the simplest things
are the simplest things.
“these things” says Greg McKeown
are limited, less, minimal
nothing is fairer than vanity
so, if you know,
Anthony De Mello says,
then you don’t.
For a boy does not tell
tales to Tolstoy
unless he’s a man grown
enough to have no needs.
for all things fair are vanity
