we give it 25 years

(there was a sad vibe)


and then one will 

realize, screaming

“I didn’t want this!”


and they will leave.

this is the american way. 

get pressured today,

find your truth tomorrow,

before it’s too late


and abandon those 

you secretly hate. not 

the kids, you don’t hate 

them (though they will


be abandoned.) this is bootstrap

pulling; this is modern love; this 

is the american way, baby.
