Waving and Smiling
How many fucking times can a person
say they're fine until it becomes
the truth?
I'm not sure either but I'm hoping
it's cheaper than therapy.

Dear N,
lol 369! I think we’re looking at this all wrong. Turn “I’m fine” into a tootsie pop lolli. It takes three licks to get to the center because on the fourth you bite the hell out of it. I hate the expression especially when I say it just to avoid facing truth and dealing with something. Much easier to avoid, cut and run. Totally get this write. H🌷

You pack n punch in painful yet the universal truths in there.. in all minimalism that you do epic Nik.. the ways of the world in many ways ..perhaps almost all ways~ always... contradicts nature with~ within..one who stays in sync with truth~ nature..is indeed a revolutionary soul.. loving your wise striking poetics more & more .. shine on:)

Its a rock, of what? I dont know lol and thats a smiley pin from the 70s.
By I94 in st.clair shores mi theres a big rock you can see and over the years people have spray painted it, when i was a kid it had a big smiley on it. So this is homage to that rock I looked upon on my way home from school.

If it comes naturally from the earth and you can grow it, it certainly is cheaper than a the therapist charging $50 per hour "how do you feel about it?"
