Veri Lee Poem
Ten gentle reminders for a fragile numbskull:
1. I have permission to be asinine, unconstrained. Meaning, impractical, fantasy-driven, shameless.
2. I will wile away time and be carefree, I will lick my wounds and self-indulge. I will be hard to watch.
3. There will be chaos on my plate and in my guts, and I will not do the laundry or clean the toilet.
4. Hair will be disheveled, both my face and dress pockmarked, there will be no cologne or makeup.
5. I will not read or write, I will not learn or grow. I will splash in the shallow waters of a small puddle.
6. Payments, made on time, to keep the dopamine and serotonin flowing as my heart still beats.
7. Breaking schedules, contracts, and engagements I don't like or change my mind about bc y not.
8. I make things work sometimes because I was a gifted child but it didn't work out. Bad luck.
9. I am better off than I should be given all that's happened, but it doesn't matter. Mad luck.
10. What’s the point? None, so nothing is in vain. See #1 for reference and reminder, you fragile numbskull.
