On Cleaning

I woke up around 5 am today,

to hand wash my clothes (which I love to do),

after walking the Camino from France to Portugal last year in 2024.

I washed, and had new ideas come to me,

I even broke a sweat, and got my daily exercise.

Then a thought came to me,

who is washing whom?

//=====

You only hate me,

because you poke the bear,

asking questions, knowing the answer.

My only question to you is,

would you want a friend who lies to you?

And tells you things you wish to hear?

Or someone who tells the truth.

Of course, this goes to a limit.

We do not always need to hear everybody’s internal dialogues.

Most of which are garbage musings that have little meaning.

Then my only advice is to be careful what you ask,

some things we might not wish to hear.
