Things

An object that one need not, cannot, or does not wish to give a specific name to

a material object without life or consciousness

a matter of concern

An entity, an idea, or a quality perceived, known, or thought to have its own existence

the real or concrete substance of an entity

An object you can't remember

or creature that is not or cannot be specifically designated or precisely described

whatever that is or may become an object of thought

one's interest

(matters)

Give up questioning the world

Accept that there are choices and there are non-choices

Things happen whether awake or asleep

It moves in everyone

Through everyone

Can’t keep things in a grip tight

Can’t pretend that it’s the same

Crazy on the path to Bates’ Hotel

Accept the things that leave

Give up asking why

Perspective

A minor death before walking in

Giving up the fear that they will be there

Giving up the idea that it’s not my place

Not my right to be (here)

Getting small

Hiding by not looking

Closed eyes, half smiling

            Clinched, flinching wrists

The obstacle invisible

The triumph slight

Release and respect

Remembering to be somber

Not to smile too wide

Not to be glad

Be indifferent

(Be here.)
