“Since I don't smoke, I decided to grow a mustache - it is better for the health.
However, I always carried a jewel-studded cigarette case in which, instead of tobacco, were carefully placed several mustaches, Adolphe Menjou style. I offered them politely to my friends: "Mustache? Mustache? Mustache?"
Nobody dared to touch them. This was my test regarding the sacred aspect of mustaches.”

“When someone seeks," said Siddhartha, "then it easily happens that his eyes see only the thing that he seeks, and he is able to find nothing, to take in nothing because he always thinks only about the thing he is seeking, because he has one goal, because he is obsessed with his goal. Seeking means: having a goal. But finding means: being free, being open, having no goal.”

“I want you to tell me about every person you鈥檝e ever been in love with.
Tell me why you loved them,
then tell me why they loved you.

Tell me about a day in your life you didn鈥檛 think you鈥檇 live through.
Tell me what the word home means to you
and tell me in a way that I鈥檒l know your mother鈥檚 name
just by the way you describe your bedroom
when you were eight.

See, I want to know the first time you felt the weight of hate,
and if that day still trembles beneath your bones.

Do you prefer to play in puddles of rain
or bounce in the bellies of snow?
And if you were to build a snowman,
would you rip two branches from a tree to build your snowman arms
or would leave your snowman armless
for the sake of being harmless to the tree?
And if you would,
would you notice how that tree weeps for you
because your snowman has no arms to hug you
every time you kiss him on the cheek?

Do you kiss your friends on the cheek?
Do you sleep beside them when they鈥檙e sad
even if it makes your lover mad?
Do you think that anger is a sincere emotion
or just the timid motion of a fragile heart trying to beat away its pain?

See, I wanna know what you think of your first name,
and if you often lie awake at night and imagine your mother鈥檚 joy
when she spoke it for the very first time.

I want you to tell me all the ways you鈥檝e been unkind.
Tell me all the ways you鈥檝e been cruel.
Tell me, knowing I often picture Gandhi at ten years old
beating up little boys at school.

If you were walking by a chemical plant
where smokestacks were filling the sky with dark black clouds
would you holler 鈥淧oison! Poison! Poison!鈥� really loud
or would you whisper
鈥淭hat cloud looks like a fish,
and that cloud looks like a fairy!鈥�

Do you believe that Mary was really a virgin?
Do you believe that Moses really parted the sea?
And if you don鈥檛 believe in miracles, tell me 鈥�
how would you explain the miracle of my life to me?

See, I wanna know if you believe in any god
or if you believe in many gods
or better yet
what gods believe in you.
And for all the times that you鈥檝e knelt before the temple of yourself,
have the prayers you asked come true?
And if they didn鈥檛, did you feel denied?
And if you felt denied,
denied by who?

I wanna know what you see when you look in the mirror
on a day you鈥檙e feeling good.
I wanna know what you see when you look in the mirror
on a day you鈥檙e feeling bad.
I wanna know the first person who taught you your beauty
could ever be reflected on a lousy piece of glass.

If you ever reach enlightenment
will you remember how to laugh?

Have you ever been a song?
Would you think less of me
if I told you I鈥檝e lived my entire life a little off-key?
And I鈥檓 not nearly as smart as my poetry
I just plagiarize the thoughts of the people around me
who have learned the wisdom of silence.

Do you believe that concrete perpetuates violence?
And if you do 鈥�
I want you to tell me of a meadow
where my skateboard will soar.

See, I wanna know more than what you do for a living.
I wanna know how much of your life you spend just giving,
and if you love yourself enough to also receive sometimes.
I wanna know if you bleed sometimes
from other people鈥檚 wounds,
and if you dream sometimes
that this life is just a balloon 鈥�
that if you wanted to, you could pop,
but you never would
鈥榗ause you鈥檇 never want it to stop.

If a tree fell in the forest
and you were the only one there to hear 鈥�
if its fall to the ground didn鈥檛 make a sound,
would you panic in fear that you didn鈥檛 exist,
or would you bask in the bliss of your nothingness?

And lastly, let me ask you this:

If you and I went for a walk
and the entire walk, we didn鈥檛 talk 鈥�
do you think eventually, we鈥檇鈥� kiss?

No, wait.
That鈥檚 asking too much 鈥�
after all,
this is only our first date.”
― Andrea Gibson
