One eye open

I'll ignore you if you're trying too hard.
I'm trained in the art...
But pay me no attention.
Because I'll never turn you away.
I'm all class and a little less ass.
As I stir my coffee.
Complete.
Self aware.
Not being judged for becoming.
I don't drop hints.
When you're missing the truth.
My head on a tilt to astronomical heights.
May technique break my fall.
Without that fake evil laugh,
And all with a smile.
Dripping like honey.

What's natural is what's pleasant just because it's natural.
I accept life's hardships because they're destiny,
I accept because it's my nature to accept.
Like everyone, I was born subject to errors and defects,
But not to the error of wanting to understand too much,
Not to the error of wanting to understand only with the intelligence,
Not to the defect of requiring the world
To be something other than the world.

Alberto Caeiro - (October 24, 1917)

Because, when I don't see you, you cease to exist.
And if I feel nostalgia for what doesn't exist,
The feeling is in relationship to nothing.
It's not the ship but our own selves that we miss.

Alberto Caeiro - (May 29th 1918)
