#childishness
Bubbly, lovely, childhood was silly
Those memories are extraordinary
Giddy, loopy, it never get dreary
A dreamworld, I would always carry
A lovely bubble in the sky
That flew above my very eye
Flew high and said goodbye
You made my childhood sublime

I have a particular fondness for snort-laughs.
They are among the most graceless, horrid, undignified, embarrassing, beautiful truths in the world.
You didn't want to admit that the pun was amusing and give them the satisfaction.
You didn't want to break the societal norm decreeing silence and sobriety.
You tried to hide your innate childishness so condemned.
You needed to keep up whatever stoic, unfazed "cool" facade someone once suggested you wear.
You clenched your jaw against the giggle, but the spurt of it could not be contained and was released as a jovial exhale.
Graceless.
Horrid.
Undignified.
Embarrassing.
Beautiful.

I'd wished that there'd be magic in me
When I grew out of my pig tails
But
To my surprise
I was just another human
With blood
And Bones
And life to do
So much so
That I forgot about the magic
That I'd wished for all those years ago
And rather wished to be happy
Around these human bones

Middle-school adulthood
Picking on people is cool.
Nothing important is going on
That has anything to do with school.
Glasses make people four-eyed
Not being thin means they’re fat.
Stutters and stammers are funny
And being snotty is where it’s at.
Ding **** bell, being rich is swell
Don’t be wimpy, not a smidge
Tree-hugging liberals can go to hell.
Revel in your white privilege.
You want to vote for a Democrat?
Have you lost your silly head?
Just check all the GOP boxes
With Daddy’s choice instead.
Now you’re all grow up today
And have a lot of political power
Which grows and grows stronger
Each hour by Republican hour.
So don’t weaken now, baby
Do what you know is right.
Stick to your supremacist guns.
Because you know white makes might.
So use your sarcasm as a tool
Secretly whisper against the weak.
And those weak-kneed pacifists,
Those flag burning, long haired creeps;
Ignore them all; give their nose a tweak.
Just like the women you dated and married
They need to follow your lead in life.
After all, they don’t count the same as you.
The important thing is they’re just a wife.
Ding **** bell, power is swell
You never suffer, not a smidge
Don’t worry if you can’t spell.
Revel in your white privilege.
Never vote for a Democrat,
Don’t be that kind of stupid head.
Just check every the GOP boxes
Faithfully keep your state red.

I'm just a mushy young adult
Who refuse to leave behind
The ease and fun of being a child.

Probably a symptom of something
to ascribe internal suffering
to an external horror.
Creeping through my guts
my hair standing on end
the back of my neck prickling.
My God I am crazy
or I am haunted
but by what has no name.
I may be a liar and cold
and that did indeed
**** a barely born love.
It is good that we could not continue
as I was not forthcoming to you
about the state of my soul.
You would have had to endure
my nightmares and my fears
waking in a cold sweat.
I do believe in evil
having seen it firsthand
dined with it in darkened rooms.
And as sad as I am
in the midst of my insanity
there is not hope
but vindication.
