hey, my sun-eyed girl
future's a folly but you made it anyway.
the planner who fucks any afterthought
potential prism unlocked. time-
won't move for hesitation
nor lists of expectations. bottled in
your finest and trashed. how's that?
spewing bright into good ole nights
and you still haven't left for a wider life.
maybe mystery frightens you,
so stop, here, my dear. surrender to
being master of none.
there's hooves in the bog
and lucidity in your chewing gums.
stop here, my dear, and listen.
future's a folly but you made it anyway
some days wax on meaningless
but at least you're unchained
to any particular thing cause
fuck behaving.
a life worth living is the one with
calm steps on the pavement, simple
pointless destiny. you've made it,
so be free my sun-eyed girl.
prompt; write to your future self in a new way
