It's New York City
Loud snarl of metropolis
Why's the smell *so* bad?

Clocking in daily
Manager's pep talk blaring
Work will set you free

Turning churning thoughts
Inhale, hold, and release slow
They drift off as smoke

Today's youth go out
Fighting dragons we let side
May they find success

Alone in my bed
At night my demons awake
We fight to the death

Fight, fight the trolls down
From the internet's trenches
No one sees you cry

Bitter my white heart
Steal my hated innocence
The jaded don't hurt

Familiar scents
Sizzles and a rolling boil
Cooking brings such joy

Shaking bedside. "That's OK.
Courage takes practice"

Is it still poly
After dumping the cyclops?
Or now just phemus?

@miermont in 2003 there was a full blackout across most of the northeastern US. It took about three days to get power back up across the grid

The road I've chosen
Bends me back away from home
Loops through the unknown

Seven eight ten eleven
Twelve thirteen fourteen
