Washing * WhenWhen I get to make my own rules
I will always have strawberries in the fridge
and I'll share with everyone who likes strawberries
unless they're allergic
Every day I'll wear bright red lipstick
instead of for only the special occasions
and I'd always get that special kind that didn't smear
so I wasn't branding my friends when I kissed them hello
Only beautiful things will be allowed in the house
beautiful and poignant and melancholy things
and people will have to think of something beautiful
something beautiful about themselves before they can come in
Everyone inside will learn to save the world
by sharing all the bits of truth and beauty
and after we laugh and smile and sigh and cry
I'll tuck them all into bed and kiss them goodnight
