- When you make a mark
- on a wall, anyone
- can see it there.
- Extrapolate that effect.
- Apply it to everything
- you and I do. Everything
- can mean something.
- You decide, and so do I.
- When you kick a can on the street,
- your kick combines
- with the asphalt,
- with the can’s dented shape,
- with random pieces
- of gravel, potholes, and garbage
- to determine its progress.
- Apply that over time.
- You can’t make an impression
- on an empty space,
- so you jerk and labor,
- and if you’re lucky
- things go as you wish,
- although sometimes
- you’re lucky if
- they don’t.
