The Legend of Johnny Boy Blue, or How a Life Saves Itself
Johnny Boy Blue found himself as a man wayfaring,
growing older having still not become a rendering
of the design of a man that he so desired to become.
The creation of the adventurous life was thundering
inside of the chest of his own design, a voice roaring
out, FREEDOM, but Johnny Boy Blue had a problem.
Fear was an ever-growing occurrence in the backswing
of Johnny Boy Blue’s life. He would find fear hunting
in the bright spots of his character often calling hokum
the oft illogical and impractical notions of his thinking.
He would sit with company listening to the exciting
lives others lead and would say a mantra of freedom.
So he enrolled in the life of knowledge where he found
a way of thinking that he never had before. Out of the cave
he walked step by step into the light. He was able to save
himself with his thinking and this was his higher ground.
He met an idea named boy and another thing came true
that someone could enter his walk, a partner on the way
and that now no burdens he comes across outweigh
the knowledge that his life came to his own rescue.

pica
n. the smallest measurable unit of human connection, typically exchanged between passing strangers—a flirtatious glance, a sympathetic chuckle, a nod of mutual respect, a shared laugh about some odd coincidence—moments that are fleeting and random and unexceptional but still contain powerful emotional nutrients that can alleviate the symptoms of feeling alone.
