Our Gift

Our gift to the world is not just what we say,
it's who we are, where we stand.
I stand here. Where I am is here.
That's where you are too.
I know because you heard me.

An Agreement in Fact

Isn't it amazing
how 5 million agreements
gets to be fact?

When we are told something is a fact,
it becomes something we are sure we know.
It's clearly something
we can be right about.
Or even righteous about!

After all, a fact is a fact,
not just 5 million agreements!

Besides, having that many people
agree to something
is impossible!

No matter.
Just put that impossibility aside
and call it common sense.
That's even more true than fact.

Kings

She was the pretty lady
who had the things of success.
"My husband does it all", she said.
"He's the power behind the scenes.
He keeps things organized and in order.
I'm just out front for show.
He's really the brains of the outfit."

Behold the pain
of those who make Kings of mice
and who mother their own suffering.

What does the truth look like?

The truth is attractive
and undeniable.
To know how it looks, speak it.
It's true.

Pictures

To picture your future life
picture waiting
for the other shoe to drop.

To see what your life
has already looked like,
picture afterwards.

Why are you mad at me?
You painted the picture!

Who's the problem?

Have you ever noticed
that the main problem
we discuss about life
is started by people?

Every problem starts with someone.

Find that s.o.b. and shoot him!
When all the people who start problems are shot,
there won't be any more p_____.

Parents

Most people have one set of parents.
Some have two.
Most of us never see the third.
These are the most intimate.
We live with them every day.
