    awake for now

    how great it is
    to live only in thought
    if you lived here on earth
    all alone
    to spin yards and yards
    of splendid yarn
    to leave the door open
    like you were born in a barn
    to keep the boat steady
    never stand up
    to speak hundreds of words
    that never add up
    to one single thing
    until that one day
    you greet the morning sun
    and quite simply say
    right before the "real" world
    steals your clarity away
    FUCK IT
    okay?
