everything is as cool as this drink
and as warm as the amber sunlight

the right amount of salt tastes sweet
so make it crunchy and add
a good friend to talk with
and the living gets even easier

so often we are dreamt
into the rarest of places

in fact, there are no facts
and fiction is for those who don’t think
that love is anywhere
but somewhere else

poetry is for saying
so
