worry

i move or i worry
i stay still because i have nothing to run from
i'd dance but i'm worried about how i'd look
i'd act but i'm worried it wouldn't make a difference
i need all the things i worry about to happen so
i have something to run from so
i keep moving
you seem so perfect

to the lulu bag i met on the bus
our children are not the orgasm of life
i wouldn't put that kind of pressure on them
children ARE life!
they flourish under attention
they wither under neglect
they occasionally scream at you and cause shit
and most of all,
they cause you terror at the thought of losing them

romance is the orgasm of life
the rabbit on the track
pulling us around the corner one more time
displacing from our minds
the burden that comes with winning
and the pain that comes with losing

i've been to Nirvana a few times
it's fantastic...
it's the commute that's the drag
they need to widen the highway

divinitive humor

living fearless is dangerous
living fearful is safe;
this terrifies me

newton said it, not me.

for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
evidence suggests love is no exception
why would it be?
love without fear would be a constant freefall
like gravity without ground
exciting at first but eventually you'd go cold and hungry
unless you could learn to feed off the bugs
slapping you in the face as you fall
it's physics

cashFlow

bank accounts are like fat deposits
blocking arteries and slowing circulation

they cause unnecessary strain on the heart

spend! exercise!
convert that fiscal cellulite into useful energy
and go pick some apples

the day you can't pick apples anymore
don't worry, we'll bring you some.
