The bricks are my security The coffee machine is my false god The laptop is my muse The dress is my armor The apartment is my heaven The city streets are my cheerleaders The hair dye is my holy water The secluded village is my hell The group home is my cell The workers are my demons The fantasies are my fantasies The comparisons are invalid The apartment is invalid My dreams are invalid My feelings are invalid The social workers are good. Better to be here than with a life.
