who can say what should be done?
~
no longer can i breathe without running,
no longer can i eat before moving,
no longer can i speak before listening
no longer can i do
before asking,
what if,
what if all i am furthering
is irrelevance?
~
have you come here to sit,
or have you come to work hard,
so that you may make something
from nothing at all?
~
play without work
makes only a stomach ache
and love without change,
a costly, boring painting!
i care not for the pleasures
unless
you first give me of pain.
