My words seem to have dashed away!
Important or frivolous words gone! instead of jousting and playing with crossed swords of meaning and purpose.
Importance too often wins over frivolity
Frivolity smeared liberally between the heavy bricks of importance
builds something worth the time of day or week and month and year.
Bricks of importance and privilege
plus
the mortar of frivolity with its own sort of privilege
builds a whimsical house with
a curvy sloped roof and a funny top hat chimney
puffing out smoke when the fire of passion is hot.
There is only one leader of a country,
one C.E.O. of an organization and
one famous author of each string of books
but
a host of us ordinary folk
living ordinary lives with
little glitz or glamour
make the world go ‘round
for the Really Important People
while doing frivolous things like
playing games with our children and going for ice cream.
We are :
Really Important Frivolous People
