THE HONEST

The honest never change.
Because they have wings.
They live in a clear expanse.
Pure as birds.
That's why you always find them silent.

The honest have a different flavor.
Imagine what it would be like
 if they were here among us.
Their presence is rare and inspiring.
They remind me of you;
