for the sake of shadows

i want to feel. to love. to laugh. to sing uncontrollably until my vocal chords break.
i want to listen. to hear. to know. to not know then learn again.


i want life. i want it as it is. the only form it comes in. i want to taste. to dance. to be.
i want little sleep and a lot of coffee. i want to breath.


i want the wind in a bottle. i want boredom. jealousy. deprived complexities.
i want tuesday to have everything to do with friday and i want my eyes to register.


i want to hate. to be hated. to feel the pain in old knees.
i want to dream a million red and green dreams that shift my eyes into something beautiful.


i want lies to know the truth. i want vague replies. i want peace. beauty.
the simplistic nature of untimely catastrophes.


i want calamity and grace. i want to taste the tears to feel the bubble of laughter.
i want to fight. to win. to lose. to become. i want light in all directions for the sake of shadows.

 

i REALLY like this!

 

thanks much
