Poetry
This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

Does anyone else feel like they just can’t find their people?
I envision this selfless relationship where we both just do things for eachother because we want to
I’m still looking for someone to embrace me
Truly embrace me
Celestial non-binary, definitely crazy, definitely strong feelings
Just take me and accept me
Someone who gets my pronouns right
My ears are so used to hearing the wrong pronoun they reflexively close as it comes to the part of the sentence where pronouns are
Startled awake when it’s right
Still looking for someone to take the desperate me and understand why
Someone who understands
We’re so tired
Wanting from me
Produces a wall
But when it’s unexpected I’ll bend over backwards to provide
I hate obligation
I’m not obligated to do anything I’m a damn human being
A living creature with its own dreams and needs and I don’t want to feel obligated to anyone for anything
This overflowing soul is screaming for freedom
Not captivity in human expectations
I’m more wild than you’ll know because, other than the explosive one, I, I hide it away for the sake of others
Unlike so many
Because that’s something I feel obligated to do
Because I’m weird and complex like that
I feel obligated to humanity but refuse obligations to single humans
Unless they’re a special person
I haven’t had one of those in a long time
I wonder how long I’ll be in the middle?
How do we find the people we seek in a sea of no’s and rejection?
I don’t know, if the point of this exercise was to make me admit that I can live, completely alone
With birds pecking me
Yeah, here I am
And it’s horrid
Do you expect me to say it’s fine like this?
It is miserable at best
Isn’t it so crazy how many layers to human suffering there are?
Better off than most
Alone as hell
Balancing on the edge
Because I see them suffering and you’re all trying to make me join them?
Is it easier to scrape them off the ledge than to build a rescue for those below?
Government, society, these people with all the power
Despairing from the thought of being one of the ones who’s really suffering
The cause of my greatest fears coming to light walks in
And walks out casually
Can my heart take the scraping?
I’m in the process of the government trying to abort me late in life
Funneling me ever closer to needing to apply for MAID or be homeless
Homeless with chronic illnesses and a walker
I mean, other people are doing it I guess
There’s no net
Just so you’re all aware.
There is no safety net
It’s a sieve and we are tiny particles of flour
Only those bloated by status don’t fall through
No community to save me
It’s one of those things where I wasn’t expecting but I was hoping
It’s all up to the Universe and the universe
Have fun deciding who wins I gue
No comments on 3482 -
I feel lost in this world of hustling and bustling, to and fro
I can’t keep up with the go go go
I just sit here watching it all transform around me
Entire communities where there once was forest
Can’t go back to my childhood play place
It’s townhouses now
There is no decrepit Elven Playground
Lost in the forest having appeared from who knows where
Years of the elements showing its age
No, it was torn down along with the trees
I didn’t get to see the teeter totter tree slowly rot away and return to the Earth
Leaving that poor tree that bore her to finally rest
There are no streams in river
Trickles of water here and there
Always heading to the pond
Yet a pond it stayed
Until they drained it
These transformations in the name of human gain
Only for the houses they built to skyrocket in price and suddenly it’s the rich that live here
And the poor should just leave
So they are, good luck
This progress
This ever achieving more, and more
Exponentially
As if our achievements are the Universe themself, expanding ever outward
Neverending
It ends
Everything has a limit
You fly to it
Then decend
If we managed a certain height throughout we’d achieve more than a desperate bought for the top does
The burst
The burn out
Every bubble bursts
I don’t know where we’ll be when the Universe does but here?
I can see and feel the limit
We’ve reached it and they’re still pushing
This funneling of cash upwards
If we’re not at the breaking point now we will be in a few years
God I hope someone wakes the fuck up before that happens
I don’t know
Someone who can actually rally people to a cause
What’s the good of being awake if it’s just to stay here and see things steadily getting worse?
Why can’t I experience the anaesthesia that the masses are on?
Steady my thoughts and just ignore it so I don’t see it coming
Can’t see my own future, but humanity’s?
How to create something else
I don’t know
To blindly believe in the good, when I’ve been shown so much of the bad
You ask for it
Over and over
Belief of the future
It’s all going so much faster than me
I am but a broken shell containing a frazzled and stressed out spirit
My ability is not controlled by belief
I need a right hand
I always feel like that’s just the wrongest term and I hate it
仲間が必要ね?
Ah these words we use that don’t convey all the things we want to say
If only I could know every language ever spoken and have a word for everything at once
I don’t know why you encourage me, I go at such a slow pace
Everything is changing around me
While I feel I stay the same.

Toxic social media
Being force fed right wing conspiracy rhetoric
I don’t want to hear about the blood that’s gone bad anymore
I don’t care if you think vaccines are evil
But it’s fucking everywhere
Sitting there
And I block and remove things from my timeline and what have you but what about the people who don’t?
What about the people that don’t know better?
The apparently millions of them?
One step further into the cult
I don’t believe in anything but freedom and yet they say they’re the ones championing it while screaming to remove the rights of others
Limit others somehow
What is the point of it?
My freedom ends where another living being’s begin
What is so hard about that?
I don’t need this hammering of garbage
I’d rather go without it
So naturally I’ve been doing everything else
But sometimes I go back for a moment
My follows, entirely left leaning people
Versus the just tonnes of crap
“Biological sex” bull shit
Vaccine bullshit
Just stupid things I don’t care for
I have games to play
Well
My fingers ache
Winter must be slinking in
The keyboard is having trouble reading my fingers
But my point is social media is just trash
I’m so over it
-
Frankly vicious
The darker side of me
Hates everyone and everything
Save a few special people
The numbers of whom dwindling by the year
I am at my most wild right now
There is so much being demanded of me daily from all around
Forms to be filled out
Papers to sign
Boxes to fill
It’s so overwhelming right now that meeting my basic needs feels like a chore of demands
I don’t want to do the dishes in order to get breakfast
I just want breakfast
And the chores all around me
Do this
This and this
We don’t hate the fancy monkeys
What a thing to call humans
Christ
We just can’t handle any more demand for anything right now
I feel like I’m constantly working on filling demands
It’s exhausting
You’re kind of a prick, you know that?
You do know that
Ah, well
I don’t know how to embrace something so prickly
We’re polar opposites
Me and you
Me and me two
I believe he hates them because he’s supremely disappointed in them
The same reason I love them
It feels like we’re on opposite sides of the glass
I’m afraid to try to break through
Would he consume me?
Compartmentalized brain
Same space
Different times
An old defense mechanism?
It’s lost in the timeless memories that never return but for fleeting moments
Where we live them like a dream
Afraid to sully them
They come, uncalled
At the strangest moments
When did it happen?
Was it when I touched the stars?
The heat fused us together?
You were a thought
Well I thought you were
But thoughts come alive in this fifth dimension of my mind
I suppose I created something stronger than me
Just teetering on sanity
Always so angry
It’s all from inside but it ends up outside
Where do I go when I go and he’s writing angry letters into the void?
Do we imagine a soft resting place within for eachother?
I am the Moon
Light and Dark
When you see his face you don’t see any face
How fitting
They wouldn’t recognise it from inches away
As if he’s not even there
There nonetheless
I’m not coming in apologising for his words anymore it’s expected and I hate being expected
I tire
Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do
Just persevere
-
When I feel like people are demanding something from me
I automatically want to stop doing anything related to their demands
Why Hermes brings me these people who just
Act like they own part of me
I love most people, but I don’t even have enough for myself
Of me
Extra steps and pressure
But I’m a chicken shit
I just am
Humans scare me
Their potential for harm
I’d rather people treat me like the feral thing I am stuck in society by chains of the damned
I try to relate
But I can’t
I’m some other type of thing
I can’t meet the wants of others
I need stress free interactions
For the love of god
I’m so stressed already
My life is imploding
Please tell me one of these fancy monkeys can talk to me without demanding from me
What did you think it was the nice one talking?
Nope, gone, quite often these days
Gentle beings can’t handle rough circumstances
At least not this one
Best to seal the people pleaser away
We’re not here to take care of anyone but us right now
Life is hard enough
The Rabbit doesn’t need this crap

I’m supposed to read one of my poems aloud
I want to
But the day slipped away
Maybe I’ll just hum Inu Yasha themes into Tik Tok
I am afraid to put my voice out there
Even in private conversation with people I know and trust I don’t feel comfortable doing vocal interaction online
Who knows why this is
Maybe it’s just a general distrust
I rarely make videos with me talking and when I do I’m nervous as hell
I hate my voice
I imagine it to be grating on other people
The couple videos I did singing were supposed to be something but they never were
There’s videos of me singing random Japanese songs on YouTube somewhere I’m sure
I used to be much for open with it
I don’t know what I’m hung up on
It would only take a second but apparently my executive disfunction has picked this
What would it mean to read it out how it was mean to be heard?
My bouncing from subject to subject
Ever trapped in intertextuality
It’s hard to believe that this trove of words has any worth
I wrote it
And its initial intented recipient never even read a word
How can there be value where he found none?
The hummingbird wants to know why I place worth in what he finds value in
It’s a fair question
I don’t know the answer
When the question is asked
As it is I turn back
Just for a moment
But it’s short lived, isn’t it?
A glance and then it slips back into place
Can I leave bare the intended reading?
Seeking solace in devices as usual
I don’t know if my voice is worthy of being heard
It hardly is ever heard
Isn’t that by design?
Shouldn’t I be silent in my corner?
Never growing out into their precious space
All the space around me
In this form I don’t fit within
Is this the place I’m meant to be?
Well, I suppose not, I’m moving in 4 months and 2 weeks.
I should start packing but I’m paralyzed by fear
I don’t know
I should do it
Read the poem
What else is my useless Instagram for?
I need to find ways to be accessible
Unfortunately poetry is the nichest thing I could have picked
But what would be the video?
Not me
God no
Perish the thought
And I don’t have much to film
Take video of
I have nothing to 撃う
I picked that kanji by reading not the actual kanji but the vibe of it
God I’m strange
I want to be fascinating
It just ended up happening in a weird way
Okay
I will make the video
I will
Just not today
I’m always missing the timing of my crash from work
I’m exhausted even though I slept
How does one create the future?
I imagine a world where everyone eats
Sleeps somewhere warm
Gets to indulge in activities that fascinate them
Where everyone contributes what they can and not what is demanded of them
But reality doesn’t look anything like that
I’ll try
I just have to get over myself first
