Feast or Famine
children of hoarders
I imagine they are similar to children of ministers
they either embrace their parents’ lifestyle
or they run from it screaming
I see many of them living in a minimalist’s habitat
with few surroundings
whereas their siblings are also hoarders,
living in cluttered rooms with messy paths
I see many children of preachers, themselves preaching the word
getting the calling
whereas, their siblings are transsexual and will never go inside a church again
it is often feast or famine for these children
