“Nothing is perfect. Life is messy. Relationships are complex. Outcomes are uncertain. People are irrational.”
-Hugh Mackay
Messy
I want to show you
How disjointed I can
Be with my jaw
Unlocked, eyes rolled
Back, and hair oil
Slick ‘cause I used to be
A wild thing that lived
Trees and under beds ‘til
I stitched myself shut and
Forgot how to sing.
