what to feed your mother

some will tell you that you have to make a home for yourself wherever you are
others will tell you that where you are now isn't so bad
irregardless of how painful the minutae within a situation, you are forever on the way to becoming the person that you will be
i'm tired of being single, but not stupid enough to be a fool
i'm ready for the next thing, but now i believe it is starting. right here. where i do not care to be.
my lemonade was bitter, because i was forever running out of sugar. too this, too that. excuses.
there are some who will tell you to clean yourself up, make everything rosey to feed your mother when she comes calling. but if she really knows you, loves you, she will see past the cardboard cookies and sarcarine-laced tea you pawn off.
be you. be real. be who you are right now. smile for no reason.
