Lightness isn't from carelessness, but from being tired of carrying other people's burdens. When the whole world is arguing about who is right and who is wrong, who is poor and who is just lacking style, you just want to be silent beautifully. Take off the armour from your soul, put on self-irony, and go cook yourself some metaphors – at least some resistance to stupidity. Here, wisdom speaks in a low voice, without pretence or slogans. Between the lines is a street philosophy you believe in more than any manifesto. Rhymes don't shout, they're like breathing: a little tired, a little bright. In this weariness, there is strength, in truth, there is kindness, and in calmness, there is the very protest that needs no posters.
