The unanswerable

 


An interesting question
I seem to get asked is:

Do you wear
any other clothes?


you might take this
as somewhat rude
but I always felt
less spoke more

and no, I don't
believe it's due
to age or any
myths we will
often say to
ourselves

I feel life can be
so complicated

so dressing like
it does must have
passed this frame
I have to work with

truth is, I will never
leave without my
sunglasses so

if I forget those I
insist on running
back for them,

once a dear friend
actually asked me

if you could take
one item to the grave
what would it be?


I instantly said
my sunglasses,

i'm glad nobody
ever thinks to ask
about my shades

whether it's round
or rectangle season,

you see too much
in this universe it
makes sense
in the end.
