Lets pause the news and talk about the good shit for a moment.

   
 
because stepping out    
of the shower with a    
warm towel is good    
   
receiving fresh bread    
soft and warm out
of the oven is good,    
   
those early morning    
walks watching the    
sun slowly rise up to  
another day is good    
   
and arriving home in    
time for your favourite    
TV show after a day    
of hard grind is good,  
   
a stranger helping you    
pick up your belongings    
off the floor is good  
   
and can I get a hell yeah  
for that pay day showing  
up knowing you got a long    
weekend off ahead is good?  
   
feeling your eyes well up    
as you get to that emotional    
part of a movie you've watched  
a hundred times over is good  
   
celebrating other peoples    
achievements because you  
saw how much work they    
put in the process is good,  
   
doing stupid things and    
laughing about it around  
half an hour later is good  
   
and checking in on your    
loved ones while sharing    
past memories is good,    
   
stroking a creature that's  
panting or purring in your    
lap because they waited  
so long to see you is good  
   
as well as smelling the    
scent of your lover for    
the same reason I just  
mentioned briefly    
above is good,    
   
getting a fresh haircut    
because you haven't    
haven't had one in    
so long is good  
   
and drinking that  
first coffee in the  
morning is good,    
   
paying it forward    
is absofuckinglutely    
good, I know that's  
not really a word,  
   
but here we are    
that's just fucking    
beautiful isn't it
 
and you know what    
else would be good?  
   
when a walking talking    
wotsit stops hijacking    
our screens and stays    
off X for a whole five    
damn minutes ...    
   
that shit would be    
fucking incredible.
