the world we’ve built ain’t made for 
comfort, or peace of mind; I 
can only control myself 

N0 0N3 3V3R 0VTRVNS TH31R...

no one ever outruns their 
own internal chaoses - 
fix what you can, or find peace 

R3S3NTM3NT 4ND FRVSTR4T10N...

resentment and frustration 
becomes a poison inside… 
exorcise all your demons 

0VTL3TS W1TH0VT G4T3K33P3RS...

outlets without gatekeepers 
allow for free expression 
of internal life turmoil

all that which ties us down has 
less power than we realize 
(though it feels overwhelming) 

4LW4YS BVRN BR1DG3S B3F0R3...

always burn bridges before 
you feel like jumping off them - 
lighten your own psychic load 

W3 4R3 0NLY GV4R4NT33D...

we are only guaranteed 
this one existence (from what 
we know); no need for squander 

4LL 0VR "3NDS" 4R3 SYMB0L1C...

all our “ends” are symbolic - 
even life’s finality 
ultimately ain’t final 

CH0RVS 0F 1NTV1T10N...

chorus of intuition 
coming from ancestral gut 
bacteria chiming in

a person’s best and worst selves 
cohabitate heart and brain, 
congressing as mindfulness 

R3C0GN1Z3D BY W0RD P4TT3RNS...

recognized by word patterns 
representing who I am - 
but it’s all temporary 

W4ND3R TH3 W4ST3L4ND'S 3DG3S...

wander the wasteland’s edges 
and ponder the pointlessness 
of chasing your false purpose 

C3L3BR4T3 S1MPL1C1TY...

celebrate simplicity, 
embrace the traditions from 
before “modern tradition” 

DR0WN1NG 1N TH3 CLVTT3R 0F...

drowning in the clutter of 
consumptive identity, 
purchasing an existence 

M4T3R14L LVST W1LL CL0VD...

material lust will cloud 
an outlook with negative 
horizons, every time 

N4TVR4L B0RN L0S3RS W1LL...

natural born losers will 
never feel accepted as 
winner without compromise 

WH1CH C4ME F1RST - THE FRVSTR4T10N...

which came first - the frustration 
or the depression? modern 
ways feeling a bit wayward

M3T4ST4T1C P0ST-M0D3RN...

metastatic post-modern 
American existence 
ain’t gonna kill me today 

1 R3M41N 4S S0L1D 4S...

I remain as solid as 
purple Christmas lights dangling 
off an early August porch 

"S0 34SY T0 G3T L0ST" C4N...

“so easy to get lost” can 
be a blessing or a curse… 
change path when necessary
