a love-hate relationship


like raindrops
that fall heavily, slowly
on a hot and sticky summer day
it refreshes and desiccates
quietly, tardy.
suddenly i open my eyes
and the world has changed
all the confusion, all the pragmatism,
cynicism and resignation
blur, get out of focus.
and i can feel it all again
the beauty of this world
that is so unstable,
that runs through your fingers like sand
and i understand the importance
and i grasp the inspiration
and so just in time
i was reconciled
with the liberal arts
even though i still sometimes wish
to live and work
closer to reality.
