"apperently" poems
if it were up to me,
i'd wear pyjamas all day
but
social convention dictates,
that while taking the minutes,
of the meeting for
the arts faculty directorate,
thats NOT okay.
if it were up to me,
i'd wear pyjamas all day.
but my boss says,
it might be
difficult to tell a phd student NO to a grant application,
in a bath robe festooned with purple hippos drinking tea.
if it were up to me,
i'd wear pyjamas all day.
but
my husband tells me, POLITELY,
that jeggings,
are not best suited to my ruebenesque frame.
if it were up to me ....
but
apperently it's not.
.....so black pants cream shirt and vest it's to be

Trying not to give up
Trying to succeed
Apperently winning
Isn't everything

the small meaness of it
shocked me, really in
this day and age
you would think
we had worked our way
past this sort of petty thinking
but no, apperently there are still
social neanderthals out there
who, when seeing some one different
have to poke fun at them,
before i could voice my outrage
at their actions my boy came
to the defense of his friend
standing up and calmly saying
difference is good, if we were all bullies
like you...then the world would be horrible
then taking the hand of his friend
he turned his back on the instigators
and walked back over to me
never have i been prouder

Friends.
That's what we were.
Now?
Enemies?
I don't know.
Apperently.
I'm just a
Blabbermouth,
*****
*****
Loser.
But you?
I try to be nice.
Not point out your faults.
But in truth.
You are worse.
You tell lies.
You spread secrets.
You give yourself away.
To who?
Friends?
No.
Whoever wants you.
And some who don't.
I'm smart.
I try.
But you?
I don't know.
Are you smart?
Do you try?
No.
You don't try.
You wonder why.
You don't understand.
You don't do well.
Bad grades.
Few friends.
The ones you have.
They aren't good people.
Your.
Friends.
They hate the world.
Hate you.
Me.
Everyone.
I can't stand it.
Can't stand you.
What are we?
Friends?
No.

making sure you safely get her home and,
treat her right with a single smile shes shown and,
make her feel like shes the only one you've ever known ,that,
can keep her guessing what else the distant future mite hold and,
get her thinkin every guy is not the same and,
like she hasnt already guessed and,
lift her spirits up like the crane that,
picked the pieces of twin towers fell to rest and,
she doesnt know,
she doesnt know,
and she doesnt know,
meanwhile you got another girl at home and,
and shes been waiting hours of the night for you to come and,
feel guilty knowing in the end you'll be alone and,
and the moment that she finds out will apperently come,\
YOU BETTER RUN!!!.

“Did you take your meds this morning?”
Those words take back all the progress I’ve ever made.
My feelings are invalid because they are irrational.
Apperently having depression means that any emotion is dangerous
Apperently being medicated for it means that your negative emotions are a mistake.
“Did you take your meds this morning?”
My mother slaps when I’m not laughing singing and smiling at Breakfast.
Yes, I’m just calm.
“Did you take your meds this morning?”
My father shoots when I slam my door after an intense argument
Yes, I’m just angry.
“Did you take your meds this morning?”
My friend spits when I cry over a deep broken heart
Yes, I’m just sad.
“Did you take your meds this morning?”
My brother taunts when I can’t talk to the cashier at Walmart
Yes, I’m just nervous.
Medications regulate emotions.
Medications do not erase emotion.
Emotions are valid, organic or controlled.
