We
Are me and you
Together
Two hearts
Two minds

I would never choose
To eat a granola bar
Or peanut butter crackers
Though I eat them
All of the time

To love reading
Writing and words
And not be able to
Communicate
Frustrated

Scratchy plaid blanket
Red with yellow stripes
Hot and itchy underneath
Claustrophobia strikes
Purple and blue prisms

An idea
In my head
Falls flat
On paper
Read it

I am a consumer
Female
Twenties
I buy
Cheap clothes and lattes

Inspirational quotes
Are full of crap
Whatever meaning
Is lost
In the sea

Turkey and dressing
Loud and overwhelming
Opinions and food fly
Green bean casserole
Too much laughter

Are you ever tired
Of just being you?
Did you ever
Want to be
Someone new?

This world is covered in bias
It’s all over you
It’s all over me too
This world is covered in bias
It shades our words
