What does it mean to be well

What does it mean
to be well?

This is just me

playing cauliflower catch
with myself
under the overpass
on the corner of
Saint Laurent
and Arcade Street,
one of those obscure streets
no one ever lives on
or thinks about.

Silence and love

and the grace
of all your cells.

When does the silence

become like masturbation?
I like to consider
the space between
the deepest part
of my forehead flesh
and my skull.

Good thing

they’re well attached,
more or less.

It is fun to consider

other people’s foreheads
attached to their skulls
more or less,
as they catch the bus
choose their avocadoes
and navigate
the interwebs.

What does it mean

to be well.

Avocado theories

vary as much
as the foreheads.

I opted for a shower

Because I felt quite chilled.
I hope to see you on the bus
or sooner.
The End.


Silence and love and the grace of all your cells came from Matthew Sanford's words in this
On Being Interview with Krista Tippet and Matthew Sanford.

One day I drew a cauliflower
and an avocado.
I am running
out of selfies.
