Random Thoughts
Honestly, I don't have any strong opinions anymore.
I'm not passionate about anything in my old age,
and I suppose that I don't really care
what your opinion of things is either
because circumstances never stay the same
making you have to reposition yourself eventually.
In other words, why even bother arguing and pretending
as if we are certain of things
that have some sort of invisible seismic force
swaying the ground under our feet?
So the bottom line is
don't waste my time telling me
everything you think you're sure of
unless you are capable of respecting
what I don't know.
You wanna know what I really care about?
What I REALLY care about is
that no one has invented a preventative
to those little gnats
hovering over my wine glass as I write this.
