our tendency to cling:
define "nostalgia"
as that pillow of your past
without the suffocating weight
of all of its minutiae.

If it hurts you,
then it's matter;
if not, it's
information—
whereas:
everything in between
is just empty space,
and everything outside it
is just idle
speculation.

Re: the mass
hysteria of crowds,
be careful
what you say
you don't believe in,
for hope is not one—
but many little gods,
still so new at this
they don't want to be
found out.
