some days I float above it
some days I wallow in it
some days it stumps me completely
some days I want to say fuck it all
some days I polish the mirror
some days I know that there is no mirror
some days it stumps me completely
some days it's the universe that needs adjusting
some days it's me that needs adjusting
some days it stumps me completely
some days I'm one with the trees and the sky
some days I'm not even me
some days it stumps me completely
