I am such a horrible awful jerk
I refuse pets
I refuse animals
Because I refuse to get another
Because that feels like replacing her
And so I won't do it
But there are all these animals out there
In need of homes
To stay safe and warm and well-fed
And they're lonely
And they need love
And I am saying no to that
I am such a horrible awful jerk
I want to cross the street and have cars catapult around me
Mass destruction like wouldn't you know it
I want my steps to echo the pavement
And for the world to swerve around me
But I walk and nothing happens
Have a great Labor Day weekend, everybody!
What if it's not labor
What if I want to anyway
What if that was why I got out of bed every painful stupid day after the other
Fall is here and I fight nostalgia with every step
I am falling into the colored leaves like a child with crayons filled them in
The slightest cool breeze knocks me over
I love this time of year
