The patron.

A donor.

The cause behind the actions.

For good or ill.

Who’s your Daddy?

Can you enable yourself?

I want to live my life

as a true human being.

Flawed yet perfectly attuned to nature.

I want to be a fellow astronaut

and fly away to the moons surrounding us,

As galaxies swing us around in unison.

I want to be a writer

of love and fantasy and hope.

To drown myself in the world created by me.

I want to be a parent

who makes no mistakes.

Instead I will try to learn from the ones I do make.

I want to be me.

That’s all I have ever wanted to be.

Am I an optimist?

A pessimist?

A happy go-lucky person?

Or a lemon sucking sourpuss?

Creative?

Logical?

Productive?

Procrastinator?

Or simply a flawed human being

who hurts too much to see past her nose?

When expectations are crushed.

Make due?

Or call and complain?

Curiousity would be a reason to call.

In this day and age

Give the restaurants the benefit of the doubt.

We have all been affected

By these horrible and necessary restrictions.

At least, that’s my take on it.

Changes in

Diet…

Can lead to gastrointestinal problems.

Changes in

Haircuts…

Usually are commented upon.

Changes in

Perspective…

Sometimes leads to new friendships.

Changes in

Pronouns…

Usually means that you should respect them.

Changes in

Politics…

Let’s not talk about that right now.

I am the most important person in the world.

I govern this country so that others may live their lives.

I am the most important person in the world.

I practice medicine to help people stay healthy.

I am the most important person in the world.

I research the sciences behind why life exists to further our knowledge.

I am the most important person in the world.

I drive the economy so that everyone has a chance to share wealth.

I am the most important person in the world.

I judge those who have wronged society and give them their consequences.

I am the most important person in the world.

I fight the injustices and try to make things better.

You are all important.

I am the one without the voice

or the actions possible.

You all do this for me.

Ignoring Reality kicks you in the face.

Anxiety and stress plant you on your face.

Facing Reality can be hard with all the bruises.

The facts face off against your emotions.

The incongruity warps your facial features.

Aging faster and harsher you face time.

Face time does not go well.

Put it on Pasta?

Try it with hashbrowns?

Maybe with rice?

Or just go out

and get more crackers.

Experimenting is more fun!

You always know where they are.

Hidden in their room.

Tromping down the stairs.

Making messes in the kitchen.

Running through the house.

That noise announces

their arrival

and sometimes their departure.

It does however make life more interesting.
