verses

Reminder
nosebleed and cartilage build the private road
the gourmet bread is baked with salts of sweat
the yacht is raised by callused hands
the ninety nine cut goes to the one percent

Bertolt Brecht
contrary to cerebral belief
it’s the lumpen northeast wind
and never the erudite sun
that dries up the vapid puddle

Prayer
let fairness deliver our inheritance
free every man from avarice and haste
peace is found when life’s mania dissipates
