just as the butterfly

settles on a flower

and spreads her wings

in reverence to the sun

let our minds

still, and feast

on the nectar

of this sublime

life

Learn to keep quiet,

and learn to keep still,

‘cause no one can hear you,

and nobody will.

Learn to be silent,

and watch what you say,

it’s not all about you,

it’s not, ‘Alex Day’.

No one is interested,

in all that you do,

no one is bothered,

except, maybe you?
