An Excerpt from Lua by:Bright Eyes

I got a flask inside my pocket, we can share it on the train
And if you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same
We may die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain
But what was normal in the evening by the morning seems insane

And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this
The reasons all have run away, but the feeling never didIt's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
'Cause what is simple in the moonlight by the morning never is

And what's so simple in the moonlight now it's so complicated
And what's so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight
So simple in the moonlight

Note To Self

Iced peppermint tea is not as refreshing as it would seem to be. Minty freshness + icy coldness = overpowering mouth mint freeze. My original thought was that drinking iced peppermint tea would be similar to jumping into a swimming pool on a sweltering hot summer day...little did I know that it is more comparable to swimming in Lake Michigan in January (that is if Lake Michigan were minty). Note to self: Avoid this mixture at all costs.

I let poetry pour over me like a cold sea and I am refreshed. Reborn in my day.

Words flow in me like blood in my veins. Without circulation I would not exist.

A breathe taking verse, a free flowing string of beautifully constructed prose.

These are the true loves of my life.
