What is life that it should threaten your faith and who is man that you should clinch onto for happiness?You have a destination. Remember this!”

You listen to the words I say without ever truly hearing

You look into my eyes and smile without ever truly seeing

Because you told me that you loved me without ever truly caring”

Don’t kill your dreams! Awake! Arise and go! Never give up!”
Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

Adrianna Stepiano
“Here’s to the “so-so-ing” it.
Here’s to the working since I was 14 in a smoke clouded day.
Here’s to saying I could stay until the forms were faxed.
Here’s to driving home past dark and dozing off the road.
Here’s to no over time.
Here’s to the long line to management.
Here’s to ALREADY DONE THAT!
Here’s to quitting, saying I’m through, saying I can’t compete for your leftover lean cuisine. Here’s to art. Here’s to freedom. Here’s to saying God gave me every penny and knowing it’s true. Here’s to the next 40 years with you.
Here’s to the new.
— Adrianna Stepiano”
