Whats It All About?

Its all about the twisting, turning, thinking, learning, bass pounding coffee grounding, love-making, risk-taking, life, yo.

I believe that everyone deserves to be treated like a human being, to not be hungry, to not be afraid. I believe that a country has the responsibility to take care of its citizens, and I believe that everyone has the responsibility to look after those in their community, the global community. Finally, I believe that every human life is as equally valuable as the next; it doesn't have a price tag. You could say I'm an idealist, but really I'm just not willing to settle for less.

Realization #2

syncopation in the snow
rhythm of my feet
I rock from heel to toe

the sounds of a million tiny
clusters of ice
grinding against each others' edges
wearing away at --

syncopation of ice and water
switching feet
my footsteps in the snow

the fall of a million
particles in god's tiny tears
bodies crushed under my
fleeting step of
heel to toe

a void of reason, I fell into
right then in the snow
like a melting on my neck
dripping down my back
syncopation of ice and water

on my back, bare, exposed
in the snow numb and melted
surrounds my body
a syncopation of ice and water
a membrane that surrounds me

syncopation in the snow
reality exists only in the membrane
