emotions are cast as a lack of objectivity needing to be overcome and cut out.
emotions are not insight they are impediment.
a threat to someone’s wellbeing and dignity is cast as a difference of opinion, that we can agree to disagree that there is no target on your back.
while you are walking up hill into the wind with your possessions rolling down the bank, the world is warped into a frame, call it a “level playing field”
as if an elite group doesn’t own and run the pitch, profit from the rent, write the rulebook and hire the referees.
my poetry class pains me so much i have to write poems about it, maybe it is helping????
