I went out today
And ran into a friend who/
it doesn’t matter

The article said
Globalization is not/
It doesn’t matter

All I wanted to
That is okay, nevermind/
It doesn’t matter

Platypus swim blind.
Cold water, hopeful thinking.
Bam! Hitting rocks hurts.

~Deirdra

Ride light in saddle
Ready for life’s twists, turns
Sun on face, seize the day.

~Kristen

Freshness of tulips
Feels like hefty gulp of spring,
Heart-warming brain freeze.

Once, before I knew,
I tried to be just like you
Now, I just live me.

I could not be you
No matter how hard I tried.
I am now just me.

Fat is like drowning
Happy is like being free
I choose to be thin.
