Life

     We spend our life until we're thirty
     deciding what parts of ourself to stuff into 
     the invisible bag we drag behind us and 
     we spend the rest of our lives 
     trying to get them again.

Our disasters come from letting nothing live for itself,

from the beginning we have to pull everything, even

friends, into ourselves, and let nothing alone.
