Happy Ash Wednesday!

-

Why don't you want to let go, be angry, be just like me?

I can't stand it when you stand there, all meek and friendly.

Doesn't anything bother you, anything piss you off?

Because I don't understand what it is I'm doing wrong.


Because, see, I'm nice, I'm friendly, too!

So why am I not feeling as fulfilled as you do?

I must be broken, I guess it just didn't catch

because the only obvious devotion is yours on this Wednesday of Ash.

a boring girl/the Boring Girl

What do you do with a boring girl? Who lets the world happen to her? Who swears that all she needs is nerve? What do you do with the Boring Girl? What do you do with a boring girl, the girl who cannot save the world? Though, it's something she once worked toward... What do you do with a boring girl? I want to let her be, I want nothing to do with her.  She unimpresses me, she's a relentless coward. What do you do with a boring girl, Who once played piano but now lets her life unfurl? Who cannot see what is happening to her? How do you clue in the Boring Girl?

What do I do now?

It's summer but I'm slipping, missed the mark and now it's killing me. I don't know what to do  with myself anymore. I've spent every night doing yoga on the floor,  because I'm trying to be mindful; Clear my thoughts and make my mind up  about staying clean or taking a shower or at which hour to lay down to go to sleep. That's just what I do every day of the week.  I thought I would be kissing, and we had fun but now I have to figure it  out.  I could've sworn that I once knew how to write a list of to-dos but now my yoga, it's not working,  and I tell ya, I'm sick of jerking  off. It makes me cry to even try, so I just lay there for while while you're working it. I've always hated my smile, is it working yet? What do you do when you're finished with everything else? When you've walked around, made a plan, read the books that line the shelves? I know it isn't up to me, but god, I'm really freaking  out. What do I do now? ...

As a kid, I was forced to finish my plate at dinner time, unless I wanted it served to me cold for breakfast the next day. It wasn’t that my parents wanted to force feed us, it was just that food costs money: money we didn’t have. So, if we didn’t have the money anymore, we may as well eat what the money bought. That’s all there was to do at that point, and that’s the case for plenty of underprivileged families… Everyone eats, whether it be out of necessity or indulgence. In terms of classism, when everything else in this world is divided up and given a “poor” connotation and a “rich” connotation, where does that leave food and groceries? Things are very different from when I was growing up and being fed by my parents, and by that I mean, now there are means by which the general population is in constant contact with celebrities and elites they idolize. Social media platforms, and I do mean all of the...
