equanimity in allthings

two women came into the coffeeshop
one asked, which of the green teas is less "greeny"?
I asked her to repeat herself,
  I wasn't sure if I heard her right
  and I wanted her to repeat herself so I'd know she'd heard, too
she doesn't like green tea but wants the health benefits
  Nathan refers to the two women as the Brain Trust
  I think Nathan says it right, sometimes
like when he referred to you as a sad husk of humanity
  sounds like something you might say, no?
  I am not a patience today
  not a temperance
but I am learning.
  I am leaning out the window towards it.
