I seek to undress each moment fully like a lover, exploring the fully bounty of each moment, taking the fire of each moment, wielding it like Promethues in my hand, so that as each moment comes to me, I may nurse it as I should, so that happniess may come to me more readily, no longer seeming like some far away land...
