#Best Life
Go ahead. Quit your job
or stay. Shuffle papers in a cubicle
or hang a hammock next to a lake.
Wherever you go,
darkness will follow.
And so will light.
You can be miserable
swimming under a waterfall,
or go into ecstasy
when someone plays Mozart
next to the copy machine.
You beautiful donkey. Dumb angelfish.
Stop flipping the channel.
It doesn’t matter what you sing about.
Just open your mouth
and sing.
