I saw someone the other day with yellow on their eyelids, and it looked so fresh. But I thought if I did that I'd look like a clown.

"My burden is light," said the blessed Redeemer, a light burden indeed, which carries him that bears it.

Thoughts in time and out of season, the hitchinker stood by the side of the road and levelled his thumb in the calm calculus of reason. [...] Why does my mind circle around you? Why do planets wonder what it would be like to be you? All your soft wild promises were words, birds, endlessly in flight.
Jim Morrison
The Doors
