[hometext] => Hard to explain the meaning, but essentially a response to those 'midnight philosophers' (everyone knows one) who seem to have epiphanies about existence on a regular basis.
[bodytext] => Long has the word wrapped around your head latched onto The notion that fear must become a broken sword Struggling to exceed its inadequate defense of crumbling walls. I’ll let you in on a secret of my own, listen close now, I won’t say it twice, I can smooth the lines with little more than a change in perception. No education could have provided me a better skill, a complication becomes An ally. But you, you who “speaks” to the narrator, It’s unfair to assume this voice is correct. Unfair to claim distance in a room so small, or worse yet, proximity across eons, But most assuredly it is unfair to connect two or three points of light into some Meaning of life. I can tell you, without much knowledge or experience, That random specks of paint don’t make a Monet, And that all you need to keep in line is wonder in the world around you.
