Everyone should be aware of the risks
Everyone should know caveat emptor
I want to try and find a way
to recreate the scam
where they shave
a percentage of a cent
off each transaction
keep it for themselves
the one they used in superman.
But its been around for years.
salami slicing
just doesn't sound as good
as the superman shill
and it has been this way since the seventies
when radar on mash
was sending his jeep home a part at a time,
since before that
when all the real men got lost
and the superman scheme became all the rage
me in front of a plastic radio
listening to Johnny Cash
singing "One Piece At a Time"
I want a piece of every moment
since I was a child
to keep for myself
I know that all just sounds like hubris to you
I wonder what the story of Icarus sounds like to you
because I will be the first to admit
I have seen wax wings soften

I am no superman

I do it for emma in the back of my mind.
At the end of the movie you will know

Mimzy returned to her own time, as if time had stopped. It was what the scientist had hoped for — to find a soul in the past not contaminated by the pollutants that filled our bodies and minds. Our precious quality of humanity had been turned off, but in Emma's tears was the instruction for an awakening; and it spread like wildflowers. People shed their protective suits. And over time humanity blossomed again. Our world was saved by a child, very much like you. Emma was our mother, the mother of us all

And I heard that there are people
with floral consciousnesses
that bloom like fields
they believe in sacred geometry
and lace their narrow words together
like a mandala.
breathe like ciphers
inside of a world
like a blue balloon
that loses it's breath too easy
I got lost that night
feels like i am drunk
saying it was in
a set of eyes like the Norway spiral
but there is that one point in the video
call it a cover up
call it a missile trace
but I wouldn't say it missed any stage of ignition
target is such a big word
call it a real life mimzy if you want.
call it The Legend of the Blue Lotus
and fall as far down the rabbit hole as you like
because there are people that believe all sorts of things
and just because rabbits believe in carrots
more than they believe in fences
doesn't mean that every one is just
automatically bunny-foo-foo
some white rabbits are from the future,
have wax wings and hubris,
no cape, no fear
just a slight need
instructions for an awakening
I hear the rabbits
with the most developed palates
prefer to eat flowers anyway

Making magic. Believing in more. Everyday.

Calling.
Walking and enjoying it.
Thinking more people should walk.
Forgetting and remembering later.
Enjoying little things.
La Fin du Monde and La Fin de Nuit
Using both hands.
Making
Picking things up while I'm out
Slapping in public
Hyperbole
Missing turns
Not falling for it
Public displays
Not seeing it coming
Not saying a word
Saying too much
Laughing
Making it okay
Changing lightbulbs
Changing minds
Cast iron skillets

Mustache.

In that order...every time. Impress me and don't ever mention either one.

This just seems like so much work....my taste is somewhere between you being annoyed by my favorite music genre and it being okay because we are going on our weekly date to my favorite hole in the wall , that you had no idea existed. Who chooses friends based on the bands they listen to anymore? Weirdos.

carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, phosphate, and sulfur.

Why things aren't designed better.
The exact flavor of the local beef burger I ate a week ago.
Baritone ukelele strumming patterns...sheesh.
That feeling when my skin feels like a sparkler looks.
What I will write.

Handing out medicine

I smile and nod often.

You are mentally challenging or challenged. You don't bite very hard. Ever. You like mustard greens. As an added bonus you could have several hipster hobbies and enjoy my wonderful cooking sometime.
