Things I Need To Address Unless

Jealousy

Ego

Envy

Green Eyed Monster 

All of these

Insecurities

And human malaise 

Are and reside 

Deep way down

Inside my

Black Tar Soul Heart

Unless I choose

To address them

With the exact same 

Jealousy
Ego
Envy
&
Green Eyed Monster

I have come to expect and count on 

From myself before 

That pains me to my very core

Since I first transitioned from a

Boy to a man child

Unless I crave regret
