Brian’s collected pieces, volume by volume.
All the seeds may look the same, but examine them more closely. This one says dance, and that one says drink, and this one think, and that one help, and this one wait, and that one fight. I grab a new handful looking and listening for those seeds saying love and patience. But all I’m finding is perfection, more perfection, and plant me at your own risk. I don’t dare drop those seeds onto some fertile ground. Not even God would risk reaping that heinous harvest.
