lady inspiration

If, as the proverbist says, Wisdom stands and yells for all to hear, then Inspiration is right behind her, playing hopscotch, topless and covered in a rainbow of paint splotches. 

If Wisdom says “listen” then Inspiration says “DUCK”, pushing you over the top of your skis as if a thousand hungry lions were just behind her.

If Wisdom promises a long life in the land, Inspiration promises, well, everything, but also nothing, never quite taking the time to settle on just one thing. 

If Lady Wisdom is the girl you bring home to your parents, Inspiration is the one who sneaks in through your window at two in the morning, drinks all your liquor, and leaves behind only an impression in the blankets, and a scent…

A scent you’ll spend the rest of your life chasing, hidden in the corner of every dream, just beyond memory…

Thank you. Let’s have a great day.
