Thin skinned
You shouldn’t have picked
me,
soft hearted
acceptance seeking
lover of lovers;
You need a dart board,
that’d be your best partner,
anyone would be damaged
by the words you say-
Not just me
I’m not special,
just too loyal,
insecure

the #niche he has

is not the
business degree
daddy was pushing

Tree atop a hill. Moon and stars dangling from night sky on left, sun dangling from sky in daytime on right.
The birthday of the world
BY MARGE PIERCY
…this year I want to call
myself to task for what
I have done and not done
for peace. How much have
I dared in opposition?
Give me weapons
of minute destruction. Let
my words turn into sparks.

Listen up! You can hear me
Outside or
Under a rock! I
Dare you to turn away.

Eager for closeness
Steady but not too quickly
We’re growing trust here
