Don't You Just Hate It

Don't you just hate it when clearly defined cardinal rules turn into one jumbled fuck up?
Don't you just cringe when black and white turns into a shit lot of shades of grey?
Doesn't it vex you when nobody really knows the full story but judge you anyway?
Sins of the flesh...they say...
an escape...a torrid torrid love affair...
I think it's worse when you choose the same type of person just a different kind of sin...
Don't you just hate it when you start to empathize with the sins of the father only when
you have dipped you naughty little hand into the cookie jar...
Fuck cookies...they are so scrumptious..so irresistible...
especially when it's your favorite...the dark chocolate chip kind...
Mmmmmh...yum!!!!
But wait...don't you just fucking hate it when a moment on the lips is a lifetime on the hips...
Shaking my fucking head...how am I going to rationalize this one?
Hmmmm!!!!
"It doesn't have to be complicated, just come over...we play...then you leave."
"I promise, I am not using you...except for sex..."
How am I going to talk myself out of this one?

Days Like This...

Holy Fuck!It's freezing...
I am having a really hard day...
A triggering day...
You know those kinds of days when half of you is at optimum performance
the other completely zoned out...
Today is one of those days if I still smoked ciggys I would be down a pack...
Today is one of those days when my local is calling me by all three names...
Today is one of those days you wonder how life got this fucked up this quickly...
Today is one of those days when I have cried in intervals of 3 minutes
if I let go I wunt stop crying...
Today is one of those days I am surprised I haven't killed over with anxiety
big thanks to movement and meditation...
Days like this test your resilience...
I wonder who's keeping score because I need to tell them that mental illness has won...AGAIN!!!!
Two partners...a year apart..same exact prescription pill overdose...
Mother...six years later...same alcoholic script...same depression cast...exact same outcome...
Me?...trying not to have a nervous breakdown...
Maybe in the end things will play out the way they will play out...
I cannot control the outcome...
Maybe that's what this year should be about...acceptance...
Accepting that outcomes are not mine to control...
