challenge cynicism

sometimes i worry it's just too easy and too satisfying

to tear down every well-intentioned concentrated effort

ah!!!! 

i don't know how there are people who don't constantly think

about every problem in the world 

(there are so many problems in the world!!!!)

i want to make the world just a little bit better

i'm not sure if the answer is smiling more

or burning down the flawed system

maybe perm do both?????

i am completely and earnestly writing poetry again!

i will keep on nursing
this ravenous, mortifying fire

life is too boring otherwise

it's not even...... i don't know
i don't even know what i want

i want you to remember all those dumb, casual details
i want to hear about your mortifying 7th grade experiences
(every SINGLE one)
i want you to let me pop the zits on your back

i guess, really, it's more like
what DON'T i want?
