________



**A want is a form of thirst.**

It dries your mouth.

It puckers your lips with tart 
MEMORIES of moistness.

**That quench *wants* to happen, though.**

So it contours your lips,
rounds your mouth, 
and fills it with sound 
that is carried out.

### And then, it is *carried out.*
<p></p>

This means, **we should sound with care**.
Take your time, and tell (yourself) the truth.

Only sound the things you would
actually like to show up at your door.  :-)

Because life is listening. 
And delivering.

And there is less buffer and delay these days.
More and more quickly, 
we see the sprout, of our sounded seed.

## How To Listen To The Sun 
(Or, "Unhearing The Key Of Depression")
<p></p>

**The sun is clever.**

It hides its secrets 
in the open intensity 
of its own light and heat.

With all its combustible power,
it still chooses to whisper like a candle
because it wants to get close to you.

The sun would love to cast itself 
all over your mind. 

But, sadly, many have **locked their doors,**
and **blocked their pores!**
They take cover from the light,
that would set their matters right.

He was thirsty and looking for water,
The sun dried the river but shines on a lake.

She was drowning, and looking for land.
She found a riverbed, that the sun had dried.

*It all really does work out, @beginningtoend!*
