Looking for a room to rent
Something that can hold
A whole lot of random
Toxically rusty thoughts
Tragically tarnished ideas
And half written feelings
My room is overflowing
So I need a place soon
Willing to pay a premium
Because silence is golden
And the world is too full
Of noise these days
And all I want to do
Is share some peace
And some quiet too
oh girl…what a powerful piece. How nice it would be to have a room to dump all the heavy/negative/anxious/angsty/self-deprecating thoughts.

I think of the Zen story, A Cup of Tea. It ends with:
“Like this cup,” Nan-in said, “you are full of your own opinions and speculations. How can I show you Zen unless you first empty your cup?”

Yes, I agree…. great, great idea. Can relate for all that transient stuff that comes through sometimes.
