I finally got to reading today,
You know,
The "Big Book"
The one with the books, and the verses
And the words inspired

That one

And I read through James
Realized I need to clean my tongue with more than a tongue-scrubber

And I started reading Jeremiah;
I felt this overwhelming urge to write.

To just, spill a couple letters, here and there, on paper
I'm here now
I'm trying
I'm here now
And I see

I've been crumbling under bitterness
Anger, resentment
misanthropy
[oooh, big words]

And I've realized a couple of things
That I really need to work on, moving forward

Welcome to adulthood, son.
Your Father will see you now.
A slightly religious/God/inspirational piece. It's a solid reflection of where I've been, and where I hope to go. I just need more time.
