A PLEA TO THE BOSSY FLOSSIES FROM AFAR FOR ANYONE WHO NEEDS ONE

 

do not sew rude patches on my soul

invasive seamstresses

you don't know

maybe not your fault

but there's where the light shines through

do not regard me as an old shoe to be tossed out

or renewed by you

because you always know

the proper thing to do and what to wear

because you just can't think about

tolerating anything but the crystal new and trending

I am not talking to you

God knows where I am

and who you are

and how I need defending;

He is handling it

without your expertise

foot ledged in the door.

starlight is starlight.

even when it's creased.
