some conversations we have do not matter.

and some that we think matter to us
do not matter to the other person
or vice versa

and even that fact doesn't matter!

all that matters is that we are matter
and we do not even know what the essence of that
matter is (maybe to ourselves but not) to each other,
so how can we actually
know what matters?

and
you
and a bottle of wine, perhaps
right now
and a future without worry.

we carry too much all the time in the front -
choose to wear a small, waterproof backpack instead
and keep moving.
