celebrate the burden

One’s humanity is not primarily an inheritance or a gift from on high. Living humanly has a price attached. Let us pay up, and gladly. Knowing as well that the opposite, living inhumanly, pays huge dividends in a crooked world.

Celebrate then, the burden.

    When sitting
    I just sit -

    Tears fill
    all the universe -

    For all the ones
    now
    who are just dying -

    For all the ones
    now
    who are just being born -

    How painful
    is
    all of this -

    Who is not alone ?

    Just sitting -
