Siren

Listening to your voice, I wonder how many beautiful poems I’ve hated listening in mine.

Certainty:

A crutch we use

to reassure ourselves

everything is okay.

But it already was,

because things are

and thus, already

as they should be.

What if tomorrow sucks?

I’ve already had worse days.

What if they don’t want me?

I’ve moved on before.

What if…?

No. What if.

Every moment we live, we die.

People see
what they like.
I just 
keep my step.

For that is what bodies wanted: to come to rest. To know no more.

Dead astronauts reads like someone is telling you their fever dream and its interpretation simultaneously in the same eerie voice.

Last year, I challenged readers and myself to create a six-word-summary of the year. I think I’ll keep the tradition.

Here’s mine:

Tumultuous change and triumphant movement onward.

All the best in your new year.

Josh

Give the people what they want
and take only what you need.

I love that. I want it in a Tarantino film.
