Vivacity lives in attention.

I guess a while back I decided the world wasn't complicated after all
because I could just skip the hard parts
and like everyone else
not
fix
anything.

It was, of course, a terrible idea,
and I take a dose of reality every morning
like a spoonful of fishoil.
it's not nice
but it keeps me living longer,
and my breath smelling worse.

I can build a house for every
complicated radical
in my heart, which is what my mouth
connects to.
