In Praise of Shallowness
An ode of envy to the unexamined life
..
To skip along like pennies on the surface of the water only once or twice...
...would be nice.
To merely dabble lightly, never pausing once to ponder paradox and fate......might be great.
To take as creed a mass-produced and shiny manifesto of avowed belief......perhaps relief.
To practice moderation in the pleasurable, awful, and the truly strange......would be a change.
To never feel inferior when up against the vastness of the universe......might be a curse.
To live a day unquestioned and unturned beyond an obvious simplicity......would simply not be me.
And so I give my homage to the kind of life as yet uncut enough to bleed......that I could never hope to lead.
