how many hundreds of thousands of years did it take for you to get so smooth
and yet I want to refine my mood in a matter of minutes
and I’ve got so many feelings
I feel things deeply
I shout at the tv
I can’t suspend my disbelief
when I know the world is revolving before my eyes
and it could all be better if we tried
if we all shouted at the tv
if we felt things more deeply
put a pebble in your shoe
put a pebble in your pocket
feel how smooth it is
that’s how little you should forget
every single edge has been obliterated by some wave of resistance
some grit of persistence
chipping away until all that’s left is smoothness incarnated
let’s not be deflated
by all that work
feel the pebble
and Be the pebble
in your pocket
under your pillow
up your nose
in your fruit bowl
next to the keys
where’s my bloody keys
next to the pebble
feel the pebble
become the pebble
how many hundreds of thousands of years did it take for you to get so smooth
