My fundamental fantasy is that people are good
And by good I mean: amenable to reason
on the side of peace
And by good I mean: dialogic
And by good I mean: funny, alive
Every man I’ve ever met—bar one, the least religious one, haha—has tried to disabuse me. Some people aren’t good. You don’t understand evil. You don’t understand men.
People are good
Men are good? Women are good?
And by good I mean: capable of doing bad
And by bad I mean: capable of doing good
What stubbornness
And everything not pinned down will float away
And they can’t kill you if you’re not afraid to die
When their spells run out they stamp their feet
their rocks get pebbles get dots
Make peace with the nothing
Anything else is good
Everything is good
People are good
