The Party

Hello! Come on in!

Would you like

a beer?

A little wine?

.

Strangers, food,

connection

like I’ve never experienced before

.

Accordion, guitar, lederhosen.

It’s loud but it’s just

FUN GODAMMIT

.

A little joke from a

human

to a human, human, human, human

we are all humans?

.

Why am I so

happy

in a strange place?

.

I feel…light.

Like I’ve escaped prison

and then arrived at a party.

Bad Egg

You must be stupid if

If you don’t notice it

It is always there

There, do you feel it?

It’s there, right there, see?

See, you must not want

Want to recognise

Recognise your ego

Ego is your fault

Faulty wires in you

You’re a bad egg if

If you want something

Something more than we

We want for you

You must be stupid if

If you don’t notice it

This little light of mine

Oh little dove,

that inner voice was

you all along.

When there were conflicting feelings

it wasn’t because

you were wrong.

~

It’s okay little boo,

don’t believe what you were told;

that you were born flawed.

That your innermost feelings were a

challenge from god.

~

Hush,

you are not

the meek submission you were sold.

You are funny.

You are clever.

You are wise.

You are bold.

~

My little love,

you are the sun, moon, and stars.

You can build your own ship,

sail long, sail far.

~

And just when the sea seems

too deep, too alone,

it will suddenly take on

the feeling of home.

~

You are held by the water

wherever you go.

A place where you will learn to

love you

and

let go.
