INTERNAL DIALOGUE

got me thinking you know
“Yeah!” to people.
to people.
money
necessarily
for its not in money
almost put me to shame
then i thought:
in what way am i lacking?
for it’s not in
money
necessarily,
for people are falling through the cracks even with money!
and the more mediums you can use to express that internal dialogue – the better.

how do i really do it!
you know how i do it?
i do it by being able to strum a guitar-
once a day –
sing when i’m walking down the street,
in the shower
you know, observe nature.
think poetics and philosophy,
and that’s what keeps me going!
and that’s what keeps me going!

got me thinking you know:
it’s the… the pronunciation of internal dialogue;
and the more mediums you can use to express that internal dialogue:
the better.
and the more mediums you can use to express that internal dialogue:
the better.
you know observe nature.
got me thinking you know:
yeah!
sing when i’m walking down the street…
in the shower.
got me thinking you know:
yeah!
“the pronunciation of internal dialogue”
yeah!

money
necessarily;
for its not in
money…
…for people are falling through the cracks
even with money.

but it’s…
how do i really do it?
you know how i do it?
money –
necessarily…
for it’s not in… money;
for people are falling through the cracks even with money…

but it’s…
how do i really do it!
you know how i do it?
“the pronuciation of internal dialogue”
got me thinking you know:
yeah!
and its –
how do i really do it?
you know how i really do it?
got me thinking… you know…
yeah!
the pronunciation of internal dialogue…
