Boom

I’m overthinking,
tired of the endless waiting,
about to blow up.

Even my mom sees it.
She starts some cutting remark
only to pull it back.

Me: "Argh! I have this anger, just below the surface."
My brother: "Uhh, it's not that far below the surface."

Rico Leffanta Date: 12/8/2020 11:59:00 AM So many motivations to assert one's preferences in youth which matter not one whit in old age! Aloha!

John Gondolf Date: 12/8/2020 5:35:00 AM What is making you angry, my friend, why is the universe rubbing you wrong? Perhaps the stars will align for you soon. In one of your poems or stories you said girls tend to overthink and guys don't think...maybe you should take a cue from us. I hope your week gets better. :) Login to Reply Anais Vionet Date: 12/8/2020 8:16:00 AM I saw your message - about reading my short stories - thank you =] It caused me to glance over them and the one called "something new" had SO many errors - sorry. There's no direct way, in short story comments to reply back - how odd - so, thanks again - you helped me fix that story. I was thinking of moving two of them into the poetry category (Asymptotic & Something new). Anais Vionet Date: 12/8/2020 6:28:00 AM I don't KNOW, don't you ever just wake up surly?
