“It's turning the thunder into grace,
knowing sometimes the break in your heart
is like the hole in the flute.
Sometimes it's the place
where the music comes through.”

“Let me say right now for the record,
I’m still going to be here
asking this world to dance,
even if it keeps stepping on my holy feet.
You, you stay here with me, okay?
You stay here with me.
Raising your bite against the bitter dark,
your bright longing,
your brilliant fists of loss.
Friend, if the only thing we have to gain in staying is each other,
my god that is plenty
my god that is enough
my god that is so so much for the light to give
each of us at each other’s backs
whispering over and over and over,
“Live. Live. Live.”

“Some days my heart beats so fast
my ribcage sounds like a fucking railroad track
and my breath is a train I just can't catch.”

“What if I don't want the monster
to stop being a monster?
What if that's the only anchor I have left?
What if my sanity depends on being able to point
at a bad thing and say, That is the bad thing.
Haven't I already lost enough time
losing track of who the enemy is?
I've spent half of my life not knowing the difference
between killing myself and fighting back.”

“Picasso said he'd paint with his own wet tongue
on the dusty floor of a jail cell if he had to.
We have to create.
It is the only thing louder than destruction.
It's the only chance the bard are gonna break,
our hands full of color
reaching towards the sky,
a brush stroke in the dark.
It is not too late.
That starry night
is not yet dry.”
