People come and go. Some are cigarette breaks, others are forest fires.

don't forget

there is always somebody or something
waiting for you,
something stronger, more intelligent,
more evil, more kind, more durable,
something bigger, something better,
something worse, something with
eyes like the tiger, jaws like the shark,
something crazier than crazy,
saner than sane,
there is always something or somebody
waiting for you
as you put on your shoes
or as you sleep
or as you empty a garbage can
or pet your cat
or brush your teeth
or celebrate a holiday
there is always somebody or something
waiting for you.

keep this fully in mind
so that when it happens
you will be as ready as possible.

meanwhile, a good day to
you
if you are still there.
I think that I am---
I just burnt my fingers on
this
cigarette.

Amelie prefers to dream until she's old enough to leave home

It should be written on your face

I see skies of blue and clouds of white

via IFTTT

beaucoup

beautiful melodies telling me terrible things

heart-lapse

(Wash my soul)

the heart beats in its cage

lugares

cada um no seu canto ecoa

Era a tarde mais longa de todas as tardes que me acontecia

quemarropa

take this dream

If I never see you again
I will always carry you
inside
outside

on my fingertips
and at brain edges

and in centers
centers
of what I am of
what remains.

| Charles Bukowski |
