i realized i am an expert at a few things: mainly i am great at internalizing my shame with the mask that is the lack of guilt. i will be a weeping willow wild wallflower white woman and feel sorry for myself. i will put salt in the wound for every word i write and i will wait until someone reacts: being different isn’t all that you are, but it’s all that you write about. why else would i write then? i will not feel guilty for my existence as a weeping willow wild wallflower white woman. i will broadcast it to the world. i will shame myself recreationally, i will boast about it publicly, yet i am a weeping willow wild wallflower white woman and not a crackhead on the side of the road.
