sometimes our thoughts turn into string
and they wrap around us
making butterfly knots
wrapping around and around and around
till the purples and the blues
are brought out in our skin
and we become the colour palette
we never dreamt we'd be
we tangle and we tumble
nothing but string for miles

it's when we unravel
that the lights get in

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!
