A poem by D. R. Myers. It reads: Do not applaud me For stepping outside of my comfort zone There were too many years I never had a safe space To be comfortable in There is a bitterness In this strength I learned to exist outside this life Long before I learned to live in it And even though I carved myself A place in this reality I can no longer find the will To ground myself here
Uncomfortable

In FY2024, an average of 41.7 million individuals in 22.2 million households participated in SNAP each month. Monthly benefits averaged $187.17 per person and $351.49 per household. Of the $100.3 billion in federal spending for the SNAP program, about 93% ($93.7 billion) was spent on benefits themselves. source-https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/R42505#:~:text=Of%20the%20%24100.3%20billion%20in,monthly%20benefit%20amount%20(or%20allotment).
AND HERE is your #uncomfortable math of what WE USUALLY SPEND $93BILLION on in a YEAR! Republicans want you dead, they're willing to have PARTIES & STARVE YOU INSTEAD!

File this under #uncomfortable math. This charlatan who was ONLY CHOSEN for his face bc nice faces telling you that your country is now on a murderous rampage to seek dominance over the world people can be happy with-he blew what WE SPEND in a YEAR on SNAP for fruit baskets.
Just off. Spoons 6/10

A poem titled Growing Pains by Robert Emond that reads: "Childhood, baby teeth fall out, bones stretch, shots galore; uncomfortable. Adolescence, puberty strikes, social roles change; uncomfortable. Adulthood, difficult relationships, children, work grind; uncomfortable. Elderly, joints ache, sleep evades, the end in sight; uncomfortable. Yet without discomfort no joy, no growth, no achievements -- no improvement. Universe make me uncomfortable!"

The #uncomfortable shoes tap
Across the dance on that poor sap-
Brought his cousin as his date
And so turned the wheels of fate:
Next week she has three suitors
And they’re all people he tutors!

no uncomfortable fantasy-- the awareness of you is not invention. affinity is recognition in the presence of memory. my weakness: longing recognized as meaning. worse-- endurance called purpose. this quest: direction without proof.

No
they do not speak for me
they do not act for me
an #uncomfortable
feeling and
a terrible situation
do not judge us all
or paint us all
with one broad brush.

imprisoned in a ship's #hold
I'm hungry, thirsty, and cold
overboard they threw the bold
#uncomfortable trip rolled
what horrors yet to unfold
towards a misery untold
be sold for pieces of gold
I fear I'll never get old

Under headlines that howl, Nothing feels steady. Claims swell beyond fact. Outrage outruns reason. Metrics bend to narrative. Falsehoods travel fast. Opinions pose as proof. Rumors dress as research. Truth arrives winded. Algorithms applaud extremes. Balance looks naïve. Loudness wins the hour. Even the patient grow uneasy.

When lies grow louder than facts, the honest grow uncomfortable — and the shameless grow confident.

I speak always with clarity, courtesy and honesty.
And yet I am #uncomfortable.
For I know that few others do likewise.
What an odd place our world is...

Tell me, what would you do
if they tossed a prompt word at you
and told you to write a wee poem?
Though #uncomfortable to confess
I must admit I get #obsessed
I write til muse is sold

Blue jay suspended mid-air with wings spread and tail fanned. Snowy background with bare branches. The bird faces left, feathers nicely detailed.

Grampa set the #pace
for humour in our clan
made some folks #uncomfortable
#often crude he was that man
he'd talk about grama
said this one a lot
he'd #walk into the kitchen
#pour himself a shot
say he married her for #honor
& on her's what he got

PERHAPS I AM STRONGER THAN I THOUGHT... I'm facing the mechanical sky with chamomile in my bones and sulfur in my eyes. I've heard tell of a śūnyatā beyond the restraints of these signatures and satellites down to which we all bow. I'm building my home with hands that once traced contradictions onto straight dirt roads. The baptism that will cleanse me will be uncomfortable but I know when I am submerged in those playground scabs, the durability of scars will keep me alive despite the death threats I perceive through the static.
We are strong and we will get through the things that bring us down!

Uncomfortable
will crash you out of gentle

pardon me for SCREAMING
excuse me if my SCREAMING
makes you feel uncomfortable
on the other hand, I can’t understand
how Anyone can stay silent
given what’s happening…
my god, someone please
STOP THE MADNESS

These are the quiet times, when the mind ceases to speak words of creation. The breathlessly exhausted times, when the over saturation is screaming louder than your screaming inner voice. The uncomfortable times, when no matter how many layers you rest upon, the pea within is felt sharp, as jagged stone. -M.A. Rivoire
#emoetry #uncomfortable
Do you have a home
Have a place of your own
Perhaps one you rent
Or pay off a mortgage
But something
Something you can breathe in
The air is yours
The space and light reflect you
Each thing in its place
Including you
A place to sit
At peace
Not ever feel uncomfortable
Uncomfortable silences
creeping along blank walls
that stare back at you
Breakfast was no joy to eat
the radio in the background
filled in the gaps

Uncomfortable,
Living between the rock and
The hard place, a thorn.
