I Went To Starbucks And They Served Me Chateaubriand

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Not the steak but the book
which I accidentally had left
in their restroom
the day before

But I would like to share
some morsels from this "meal"


A religious mind was part paralyzed:
there were truths which would
always escape it, no matter
how superior it might be
in other ways

*
There is no legal age for misfortune

*
Sufferings are no less vain than joys

***

FRANCOIS CHATEAUBRIAND
