It’s like I woke up to a nightmare I wrote about.
I’m really not feeling good. Maybe human nature isn’t flawed. Maybe human nature is perfect and we just don’t like it.
All this violence this summer. It may be fueled by the actions of ignorant men. But even if you’re a good person, it still puts hate in your heart.

I grew up with my mother’s belief that men were inherently good but I have been fighting my father’s inherently bad men my whole life.
Now I realize, there are no absolutes. You can’t be just good or just bad. You choose who to be good to and who to be bad to. You are someone’s supreme angel and another’s debilitating asshole. You birth life and suck it away. You gotta get used to doing both. Life gets boring if you’re doing only one.

My mother hung a bird feeder under a tree at the front of my house and inadvertently created a destructive ecosystem. This cat sits on my neighbor’s front steps watching the tree. On that tree hangs the bird feeder. Since the bird feeder’s inception, bird nests started to appear on the top branches of the tree. In those nests are chicks and eggs. The cat appeared shortly after. In the mornings she comes, her mouth salivating as she watches those nests. And as I come out to leave for work, I notice my Honda Accord’s windows drool with caramel creamy bird shit. I look at that cat sitting there. It looks at me and I know we have an agreement. Kill those motherfuckers!

“Age: the older we get, the younger we want to be until one day our wishes come true and we find ourselves in diapers, teeth falling out, at a daycare center where we get to sleepover every night.”
Isn’t marrying for money kinda like putting a mortgage on a prostitute?
