LUCKY?CONRO

The stove, which only lights up once every few tries,
lit up on the first try this morning.
Lucky!
Or is that really lucky?

Getting too used to inconvenience seems to shrivele up your life.
Once in a while, indulge in convenience
And let your heart and body expand.

On the weekend, at the shopping mall,
become part of the crowd and trash,
browse the latest appliances,
and be surrounded by brand new things.

A once-in-a-century typhoon caused immense damage in various places, but it neatly avoided my house.
Happy!
Or is that really happy?

When things go too well,

it feels like I'm being controlled by something.

Sometimes, I'm alone in the middle of the night,
jumping onto a bus with no destination in mind.

Becoming part of the iron and bones of a chaotic multi-level junction,
becoming a body that's merely transported,
becoming a light on the side that passes by.

A beautiful rice ball, one in a thousand, left behind at a service area.

A real lucky cat, one in 10,000, left unsold at a pet shop,
now a popular mascot cat,
happily fat and thriving business.

I feel like I've written several songs but haven't actually played a single one.
Sometimes, I leave them unfinished,
a song with no punchline forever.
