Less order

I'm the kind of person who puts everything back in its place.
My shoes go in front of my dresser.
My coat is always on the same hanger.
One pen on my desk and the rest go in the mug.

I'm not obsessive about these things
It's automatic behavior, habit, built up

I want to be the kind of person that can leave things so
Take off my shoes and leave them there
by the desk, under the coffee table

The kind of person who can break habit
Who doesn't carve out her own ruts.

Break the rhythm;
see what happens.

These days everyone goes for the instrument and forgets about the muse.

The story gets inside you.
It makes you change your mind.
