i'm too tired to do much
but watch the circus
in the left and right rings
the purists shout their visions
of a perfect world
the left well-meaning but naïve
the right vicious but in awe of the law
i sigh hoping they'll realize
the only way forward
is to meet in the middle

Hahahaha, every single writer goes this through this conundrum I suppose
My writing process is usually:
a) I got this
b) well, fuck
c) wait that part was real good
d) wait no that part sucks
e) I am a god of this place
f) the fuck is this shit, who do I think I am, why am I here
g) oh man I just figured it all out
h) mistakes were made
I) existential dread

Ooof , I got goosebumps. I understand the sentiments of moon but I am of the parasite species too.
#3 - The Moon
The moon looks down,
she sees her sister,
ragged and tumerous,
her body bruised and plucked
of all it's hair.
And when she speaks,
dark plumes of ash fall from black lips.
The moon smiles.
She's only been sick a dozen times.
First in 69.
Last in 72.

Until abortion is legal in every state, lets require men to get a mandatory vasectomy until they are proven emotionally mature, financially responsible and ready to be a father.
Wait, what do you mean regulations on men's bodies make you uncomfortable?
