you are a child opening presents at 6:34 PST on a Sunny Christmas morn in PASADENA, CA while her parents look on in feigned interest razor scooter abandoned amid crushed scrunched wrapping paper as you tear apart a box of Legos for the plasticky viscera contained therein. you are a teen, finding marijuana at 15:34 CST under a bed in BOULDER, CO while your parents shout at your brother feigning sympathy simply to ****** it back and you are wrenching open ziplock to swallow a chunk of his stash and you find yourself enamored with the aroma. you are a woman, fighting for equality at 10:26 EST wielding picket sign (paint and sharpie on cardboard) and megaphone in MANHATTAN, NY while your parents turn over in their graves, uncertain what you are fighting for.
