"The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud."- Coco Chanel
Life isn't about surviving the storm, it's about learning to dance in the rain.


Weeds of woe,
Peoples, foes,
Tears, and tires, and tears,
Wishing bones,
And lucky stones,
And rabbit feet and ears.

Ships and sails,
And books of nails,
Frogs and polliwogs,
Arms and legs,
And snakes with cakes,
And dogs in misty fogs.

Meek old ears,
Rough soot of air,
Tie life to death itself,
Weird gumption’s quirk,
Ill earth don’t work,
Rust nails make rusty shelf.
