Weight is for the living.
It is the iron anchor of the "I".
The heavy chain we forge
link by golden link.
We crave the heavy applause.
The massive title carved in cold stone.
The leaden weight of being "important".
But mass is a local habit.
It ends exactly where the story begins.
The universe does not care
for the density of your collection.
You cannot be remembered
for what you clutched with white knuckles.
A closed fist is just a knot of skin
holding onto a handful of nothing.
You are only the clearing.
The open ground.
The beautiful vacancy.
You are the space you surrendered.
The room you made in the world
by finally stepping out of your own way
so that others might find
a place to finally stand.

History is a ghostwriter
who refuses to retire.
We spend our days
performing a plot
we didn't plot.
Acceptance is the invisible ink
that binds us to the page.
If you think you're making a scene,
check the margins.
You'll likely find
you're just hitting your marks
on a stage
built from the debris
of everyone
who came before.

Tomorrow, we are marching.
When we see government officials ignore the Law, we get angry.
But please—do not confuse our anger for a lack of love.
It is the same love that led us to serve that leads us to this anger.
We are not rioters.
We are not trying to ruin our country.
We are soldiers and sailors who still believe that no one man is above the Law.
Without the Constitution, the "USA" is just a set of coordinates.
We are marching to defend the Country we love.
NO KINGS.

We are a verb trying to pose as a noun.
The self is a ripple that never stops moving
returning to itself only to change again.
The signature is just the ice left behind.
A mark of where you were, not a map of who you are.
Don't mistake the echo for the voice.

We are born into a story
already in its tenth chapter.
The "debt collected by culture"
is the weight of our ancestors'
unresolved arguments and dogmas.
You inhale the air of the present,
but you are immediately taxed
by the ghosts of the past.
Whether it’s religion, national pride,
or family tradition,
culture is the debt collector
reminding you that your "original" life
has a lot of previous owners.
Even the smallest green thing is measured
by the metric of consumption.
The moment you are branded as a consumer,
the culture starts sending the bill.
It's a process of quality control,
ensuring we are standardized
from our very first breath.
The identity we claim
is just a batch number.
