the progression of thoughts<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
image<\/span>
\nand sound<\/span>
\nfertilize the sentiment,<\/span>
\nwhich sprouts<\/span>
\ninto a thought.<\/span><\/div>\n

the thought<\/span>
\ngrows thicker<\/span>
\nand thicker<\/span>
\nuntil<\/span>
\nthere is no more room<\/span>
\nto spread.<\/span><\/p>\n

and then come<\/span>
\nthe words,<\/span>
\nbreaking windows<\/span>
\nand shedding blood,<\/span>
\nuntil<\/span>
\nthe silence<\/span>
\nharvests the space<\/span>
\nneeded<\/span>
\nfor another seed.<\/span><\/p>\n

a difference of interpretation<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
some of us<\/span>
\nnever read the owner’s manual<\/span>
\nto<\/span>
\nour own lives.<\/span><\/div>\n

as a matter of fact,<\/span>
\nwe probably burned it,<\/span>
\nsometime<\/span>
\nbetween birth<\/span>
\nand highschool,<\/span><\/p>\n

but<\/span>
\nin our defense<\/span>
\nwe probably just wanted to<\/span>
\nstudy<\/span>
\nthe effects of fire.<\/span><\/p>\n

so instead<\/span>
\nwe learned everything<\/span>
\non our own,<\/span>
\nand rewrote<\/span>
\nthat owner’s manual<\/span>
\nwith nothing but our guts.<\/span><\/p>\n

and if you ask just about anyone<\/span>
\nthey will tell you<\/span>
\nthat your guts<\/span>
\nare just no substitute<\/span>
\nfor<\/span>
\nstandard black ink.<\/span><\/p>\n

and then<\/span>
\nyou might nod<\/span>
\njust to pretend that you’re paying attention.<\/span><\/p>\n

but really<\/span>
\nyou’re just thinking in terms<\/span>
\nof<\/span>
\nthe carcinogen content<\/span>
\nof standard black ink.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
but only <\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/strong>you sit there<\/span>
\ncontained<\/span>
\nby nothing<\/span>
\nbut a legion of<\/span>
\nstreetlights,<\/span>
\npeeking<\/span>
\nin your apartment.<\/span><\/p>\n

the stillness<\/span>
\nis warm enough<\/span>
\nto wear.<\/span><\/p>\n

but<\/span>
\nyou think<\/span>
\nof people.<\/span><\/p>\n

these people,<\/span><\/p>\n

working the stitch<\/span>
\nbetter than any<\/span>
\nseamstress.<\/span><\/p>\n

and<\/span>
\nhere you are<\/span>
\nabrasive<\/span>
\nto needles,<\/span><\/p>\n

afraid<\/span>
\nof thread.<\/span><\/p>\n

it’s a discipline<\/span>
\nof staying<\/span>
\nintact,<\/span><\/p>\n

just a belief.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
