perhaps a little peace of God inside of you is much bigger than you think. If it's true that the world is both the hideous beast in a lovely place, why not choose to rest my thoughts on the lovely place. So many lovely places. Starting with the taste of her skin. Believe me of God, no, it's not that kind of the sand in my toes. Mombasa camels, the smell of ganja incense in the air, honey on talent, pink sunsets, honey suckles and walks home from school first kisses, blowing wishes on wish flowers, spreading seeds. And remember when you got that posture, this is a lovely place. The front porch, I stole my best friend's girlfriend. He forgave me, put his arm around my neck and said I love you on the front porch please call me please. 764 Ingleside road from Porch a lovely place. The churchyard trips to the beach with the golden retriever seeing dad smile that time. It's a lovely place. Yeah. Okay we got elephants out here. We got whales, tigers. Somewhere out here. I've seen it on tv and at the zoo. Disney animal kingdom and birds. A bird is building a nest in front of my front door right now. It's a lovely place. Not the places with war and racism and violence and greed and republicans hoops. Don't talk politics. Remember lovely things. There is a lovely world here. Perhaps a little peace of God inside of you is much bigger than you think
