Puzzled

When we ask questions

we get answers

but they don't answer our questions

they leave us hanging

and they are the answers to a different question.

If I try to clarify

it gets worse

and the answer is nowhere near what I asked.

It's like bad AI

or a puzzle that can't be put together

it makes me frustrated.

    Revival

    It's a band piece

    weird, I know

    it's from last year

    and we only played it in concert once

    but it means a lot to me

    it reminds me of a lot.

    Me

    How

    do others see me?

    Do they see a girl in gray cargo pants and light blue thermal quarter zip?

    Do they see a friend who loves them despite her crankiness?

    Do they see a quiet awkward girl who prefers books to people?
