“Your mind is yours alone. Do what it takes to make yourself comfy. Build a library in there, play some music. Make it your home.”
― Lin-Manuel Miranda, Gmorning, Gnight!: Little Pep Talks for Me & You

“Gmorning
November
You lurch & you lumber
From bonfire to ember
From waking to slumber
You deaden the grass
& you piss in the pot
The birds all haul ass
And the pumpkins all rot
Remember, November:
Momentous elections
Ignite us, divide us,
Divine new directions
November—
Chill.

Gnight, November
Come in from the cold
We're making hot cocoa
with WHOLE milk: we're bold.
CHILL, November. CHILL.”
― Lin-Manuel Miranda
