perspective
“windows are the eyes of the soulless” ― thomas ligotti, the nightmare factory
how big was your bonus?
could you afford this week’s groceries?
on whom is the onus?
to ease,
their miseries?

those silent bins
if they could speak
of
our

enveloped
“i was enveloped in numbness, and absence of feeling so deep the bottom was lost from view” ― haruki murakami, the wind-up bird chronicle

by something that knows
no name
don't give it house room
turn up the
volume
and just
dance
