To Mary Oliver, and all kindred spirits with hearts of gold.
In Self Defense
(A work in progress as always)
I am a perpetual wallflower; misunderstood, complicated, and yearning for the world to gain some common sense.
I am frustrated because I know it will never happen.
Looking for that one silver lining that defines my life in perpetuity; pressed between the pages of my favorite book like a memory of someone waiting for the sun to shine.
It is mine, a fine line between mediocrity, and desire for something more than humble pride, a selfish whim of fame, and fortune; a game I call my life in self defense.
