When You are in the mood

When you are in the mood just do what you have to do and don’t get confused; when you are in the mood take a voyage to the moon and plant some poles in the directions of the water holes, and let the flags fly where the last mission dies; the conquest was made when thousands of Norman, French, Flemish, and Breton troops conqueror the English throne and honor William with a crown and a gown derived from the childless Anglo-Saxon king roots. When you are in the mood take a stroll on the beach in a shirt and bikini to cover the lower part of your body, soak your sins in the salt water and watch out for the shark that prowls around at noon and swim to the surface after dark. Take in the vastness of the sea before the temperature falls to minus zero degree, the waves will come rushing after you and your heart will become one with the sea. When you are in the mood keep your eyes on the stars, anchor your ship on the dock and buries your feet in the sand and mingle with nature on the land. The storm is ranging in America, but the sun is shining in the Caribbean, Florida and California has nothing in common, but you must enjoy the weather on the agreeable sand while you can. Throwback your head and look up at the sky and you will see different shades of clouds rolling by, keep your eyes steadfast on it until every trace of it disappeared beyond the horizon. When you are in the mood throw a party for the entire universe, the great Gatsby knows how to do it and every Friday the people look forward to it, food, drinks and liquor galore and a multitude of guest piled up at the door because it was free, they travel, miles upon miles to eat free. They know how to balance life making a weekly sacrifice. He kills a bull every Friday morning to feed the guest in the evening. Everybody loved his parties, but they all gossip about him, and when he died nobody came to his funeral except Nick his only friend that buried him. When you are in the mood everything run smooth there is no hidden agenda or surprising calendar; you feel detached from everything, yet you are a part of everything and that is how it should be when you are in the mood. When you are in the mood everything around you is serine and calm even though the vultures are vomiting on the lawn, the billows are surging in the sea and the temperature is rising at a hundred and twenty degree, but nothing can affect you when you are in the mood. Daylight breaks through the gate, and you have to take your leave before it’s too late, it’s time to and saddle up and go, so throw your arms around the center of the show, when you are in everything around you is cool.
