slowing down

having trouble slowing down
listening to the signs
noticing the signs
adhering to the signs
we all get them
some more obvious than others
lately
THE UNIVERSE HAS BEEN SCREAMING at me
whispering at me
tapping me on the toosh
gently persuading me
to
SLOW the beepity beep DOWN
do i dare listen
do i really
truly
sink deep down into my
being
and slowly
breathe in the fresh los angeles
air
we are the city of angels
i believe in them
sometimes they come in the human form
sometimes they are ethereal
like that dude from
the last lecture
says
scientists can't prove there AREN'T fairies
aaaaah
remember to take
time to smell the roses
sometimes
cliches
make
sense
