Repression Envies Freedom
Happiness in life comes
when you stop seeking approval
and calmly accept being a transparent failure,
while continuing with your art.
For a poet,
art comes before love,
and love comes before food.
For a mother,
food comes before love,
and loves comes before art.
Repressed people resent
those who live freely.
Happy people are untouched
by those who resent freedom.
A happy life is a free one.
