i'll take that to go

I got curious
so i googled
'how to leave your life'
i got how to leave your lover
how to leave London
and how to leave your job
really?
is that a hint
a clue
my calling
should i do it
so that i can write about it
so that the next person who gets curious
can know about it
or maybe we're not supposed to write about it
maybe we're just supposed to leave it hidden
let people think
it's their own calling

people do it
they leave their life everyday
what's a life anyway
your job? your friends?
your family? your thoughts?
what if you only leave one of those things?
what combination of these aspects
does it take
to make a life
and what combination
of insanity, dreaming,
yearning, hope
does it take
to change it

  1. one way to change it, as far as i know, you have to discard the images and perceptions you have cultivated and assembled thus far. then you start seeing everything new each time.
