How To Live

Stefon Napier

--

Be thankful for hands that
hold things you cannot keep forever.

Give thanks for trinkets that go missing and never come back.
Take joy back from the daily slaughter and
reconcile with the storm behind the eyes.

When in doubt go live in Kansas.
Meet with men who know they are going to die.

Find a diamond. Buy a field.
Sell everything you own.
Go and love someone and never come back from it.
