Celebration
✺
I celebrate myself
and sing myself.
—Walt Whitman
~
here on this bridge between
starshine and clay,
my one hand holding tight
my other hand; come celebrate
with me that everyday
something has tried to kill me
and has failed.
—Lucille Clifton
~
This is my life
It's not what it was before
All these feelings I've shared
And these are my dreams
That I've never lived before
Somebody shake me, 'cause I
I must be sleeping.
—Staind
~
I have to praise you like I should.
—Fatboy Slim
~
These are days
you’ll remember.
