Occasionally in December, I take to the streets, my soul comforted by the winter silence. The traces of snow are my past…or somebody else’s future? In the city I dwell, where all is programmed to “love” and utterly “enjoy” the forthcoming Christmas. I see joy and shining happy people, same as in the days of August when people are getting ready for the summer’s adventures: It’s all joy, it’s all great.
I love that happy face of yours, dude, and I see that all Aphrodites in time can hardly stand beside your flashing existence, dear woman…joy!
While sipping, next to the window, on a cup of hot grape’s liquor with melting honey and a cinnamon piece in…a lost and wicked dream for the homeless and the deprived. If you are kind (if…) and wanna do something for them, first don’t buy them food. It’s a matter of dignity for them, take them to the market and ask them to take everything they need for the day–and tell them you are paying. Second, protest with them who ended like that when they lost jobs, houses and their life. Third, don’t consume more than you can. It is immoral to the human kind. Finally, be their activist: Protect them from the ugly state that hunts them like witches. Don’t be programmed-kind. Be fair.
I’ll put some music on now and order one more drink. Play it loud, play loud your lives!
