Enduring
just to say
we’re enduring
feeling
the bruises
on
my skin
I
just
want to
relieve the torture
I
don’t know how
all these
things
should end.
Maybe
that’s all
that this is
after all:
trauma and bondage and joy
maybe
that’s all
you can feel
after all:
just trauma and bondage and joy
Maybe
we should
try to heal
after all:
for sorrow is hard to avoid.
In shadows we find who we are
in darkness it becomes apparent
depression’s a lesson
in counting your blessings
just slow down
just slow down
just slow down
just
slow
down.
these are not poems
they’re stupid.
