Happiness

Turkana men herd cattle, sheep and goats, protecting their livestock from rivals in the dry Turkana region in the north of Kenya. The men are armed with clean, well-maintained rifles because of frequent feuding with other tribes. Livestock are at the centre of Turkana life: photo by Goran Tomasevic/Reuters, 17 March 2016

I didn't mean it that way. No blame. I have you to thank for your continuous applicability.

You have been sufficient unto every day. That's an awful lot of days I have you

to thank for 

but I keep thinking about that confused sardine who said later

as well as our earlier revels

back in the day when it was said you were an actress

that was the day before the access

past reason hated expressway ran straight through here, and the mad possessed traffic,  

when it should have been said

a bliss in proof to make the taker mad is well worth the expense of spirit

and I have you to thank for your beauty and for your patience

and you have me to thank for... uh your uh... shame

and I have you to thank for happiness
