I know not how to be happy
Like a madman who comes
Shouting down the street
Telling the world
The echoes of his heart
I only know how to get drunk
On coffee every morning
On poetry on good days
On thoughts of you sometimes
When I’m visited by amnesia
And forget that I was supposed to forget you
Get drunk on poetry –that’s always a great choice.

It’s infinitely better to be drunk on coffee than alcohol. The latter substance is a poison, but the former is the elixir of life!

I can’t argue with that, Josh. Coffee as the elixir of life – love that! 🙂

This is circular. We return unto those things which created difficulties for us, human nature. I say this because it starts out with the admission, then demonstration, then the exemplifying culmination. I love it, thank you.

There’s a great old story about the Tadger (half Tiger half Badger) – who is mischief incarnate. You aren’t supposed to see him ever for he is a mystical creature. However, if you see him once, you’ll forget. But if you see him twice, you’ll forget to forget which is quite bad.
This reminded me of that story for some reason. Thank you!
