calender

maybe having goals this time is
a good thing. maybe i can sing
loudly and maybe i can move
away. maybe i can take beautiful
photographs and be happy and
put on a play and cut my own hair.
maybe this time i'll make a list of
the things i've done and not the
things i have yet to do. and
maybe that is really important.
i think it is really important.
maybe this time i will know my
own face and my own feet and
my own strong legs. maybe i will
buy a calender. maybe i will speak
in french, and on the breath and
maybe i will speak up. maybe i
will learn that i can always be
learnin' and that interesting places
are just around the corner.

babygirl, i resonate.. this makes me feel a little bit better about a lot of things. and i feel we need to collaborate more and again, collaborate on life or creating or something.
