Triggered Shadows
Many adults seem
like they are
spiritually broken
and the youth
already knows
so when we
show the light
and call
things out
openly
the ones
who do not
know how to
be honest
or self-regulate
will always
send forth
what we write
to one another
all just so they
can psychoanalyze
and crash out
about what we said
to whoever will
listen
even though
the ethical
healthcare
experts
tend to
agree
with us.
Note: Alison Smith: Deep down I genuinely want you to leave me alone and stop commenting on my poems. You are being parasocially invasive and I don't welcome your intrusive energy.
