this makes me laugh

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”

Rainer Maria Rilke

Men should under no circumstances wear leggings.

This is the morning

What was that day
Or unslept night
What tea was sipped
Under foreign covers
Where did you drive
And with which testing thoughts
What urban trial was had
What livid person spat your way
What didn't you adore
And who returned that
For you to melt into a seat near mine
And taste long gone leaves of memory
For you to sidle down a busy street
Swinging hands as cold as old loves
Styling the air with rapid grace of voice
Singing the only melody we both know

The bigger picture is a better life
