Favorite Quote:
"I am not young enough to know everything" - Oscar Wilde


this one is for
the pretty people in scarlet.
the ones with hollow hands
and sweaty palms.
the ones rooted to one spot
in their mind while
the earth rotates beneath them.
warm cots are figurative and need to be found.
knobby knees and ankle socks
are facades.
pull the blinds up, and face the western sky.
the world won’t stop moving,
so stand still
or shift with it.
