Do the math
80% water
99% empty space between atoms
not much there
to make a human
who’s
100% broke
98% drunk
and 110% able to imagine
myself a god
a monster
or anything other
than an accident
painfully capable
of being agonizingly beautiful
or elegantly mundane
"Time is very slow for those who wait
Very fast for those who are scared
very long for those who lament
Very short for those who celebrate
But for those who love time is eternal."

Bjork - Thunderbolt
My romantic gene is dominant
And it hungers for union,
Universal intimacy,
All embracing.

slow
morning is slow
slow as a bird tangled in a dream catcher
slow as honey poured into tea
slow as my ability to wake
and as hollow as that little bird’s bones
especially when i leave behind a bed
where you still lay asleep
dreaming, slowly

Remember
These are the moments that break you
if you let them
These are the moments that shape you
if you learn from them
These are the moments that make you
if you conquer them
These are the fights that toughen you
if you fight them
These are the fights that strengthen you
if you win them
These are the fights that transform you
if you don’t give up on them
These are the choices that change you
if you stand by them
These are the choices that hurt you
if you don’t consider them
These are the choices that anchor you
if you don’t accept them
These are the thoughts that weaken you
if you don’t resist them
These are the thoughts that poison you
if you don’t out think them
These are the thoughts that kill you
if you don’t confront them
Remember the hopes that will guide you
if you don’t say can’t
Remember the dreams that will drive you
if you don’t say can’t
Remember, there’s nothing you can’t do…
if you don’t say can’t.
卡尔维诺喜欢的作家们
我特别爱司汤达，因为只有在他那里，个体道德张力，历史张力，生命冲动合成单独一样东西，即小说的线性张力。我爱普希金，因为他是清晰、讥讽和严肃。我爱海明威，因为他是唯实、轻描淡写、渴望幸福和忧郁。我爱史蒂文森，因为他表现为他愿意的那样。我爱契诃夫，因为他没有超出他所去的地方。我爱康拉德，因为他在深渊航行而不沉没其中。我爱托尔斯泰，因为有时我觉得自己几乎是理解他的，事实上却什么也没有理解。我爱曼佐尼，因为直到不久前我还在恨他。我爱切斯特顿，因为他愿意做天主教徒伏尔泰而我愿意是共产主义者切斯特顿。我爱福楼拜，因为在他之后人们再不能试图像他那样做了。我爱《金甲虫》的爱伦·坡。我爱 《哈克贝利·费恩历险记》的马克·吐温。我爱《丛林之书》的吉卜林。我爱尼斯沃，因为我每次重读他，都有初读般的快乐。我爱简·奥斯汀，因为我从未认真读她， 却因为她的存在而满足。我爱果戈里，因为他用洗炼、恶意和适度来歪曲。我爱陀思妥耶夫斯基，因为他用一贯性、愤怒和毫无分寸来歪曲。我爱巴尔扎克，因为他是空想者。我爱卡夫卡，因为他是现实主义者。我爱莫泊桑，因为他肤浅。我爱曼斯菲尔德，因为她聪明。我爱菲茨杰拉德，因为他不满足。我爱拉迪盖，因为青春再也不回来。我爱斯维沃，因为他需要变得年老。我爱……
Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living along won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or crushed, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.

I have a lot to say, I have no time to write it down. I need to write tons of paper summary…
Goodnight.
