Flies are neurotic,
moths are crazy,
but for serenity you can’t beat a butterfly.

There’s no preparation for poetry. Four years of grave digging
with a nice volume of poetry or a book of philosophy in one’s
pocket would serve as well as any university.

4 years of gravediging
seems a solitary path
like the notebook in ones pocket
but its very human indeed
so forge ahead
theres a road to be taken
