What It's Like to Learn Otherwise


Like a hurricane inside your brain,
Like you need to act… now.
Like being left for the enemy
Who then takes a bow.
Like a kick in the nuts
Or a secret family disgrace.
Or going the whole day
With something on your face
Because no one spoke up—
Had the respect to say,
“Hey, you look stupid.”
Or like trying to look tough
After being bitch-slapped by Cupid.
