I used to write a lot of poetry. I started writing poetry probably when I was about 15-years old. I would enter poetry contests…..it was really fun and I really enjoyed it. I forgot how much I loved writing. I have not been writing much (for pleasure) because……here comes the slew of excuses…..but they’re GOOD excuses! Listen! Depression, anxiety and just extreme exhaustion have been the monkeys on my back. Those bitches weigh me down and make me want to be mindLESS instead of mindFUL. Fuck those bitches. Writing is so therapeutic for me and I need a positive outlet for stress management…..especially now……a lot of moving parts in my life, but that’s a GOOD thing. At least I have a fucking life! And a damn beautiful one! I work my ass off to have the blessed life that God’s graced me with. Oh, shit…..Donnie just woke up suddenly……he’s crying in his room. Dude….he hasn’t done this since he was a baby! I’m thinking it’s because of his schedule changing. Today was day 2 of daycare. I’m only starting him off 3 days a week, so tomorrow will be his last day for this week. He’s doing great at daycare though! There are some things that are bugging me, but overall, everything is OK. OK, Donnie looks like he’s going back to sleep. Weird. Maybe he had a nightmare??? Who knows.

So, here’s some poetry for you to munch on……or suck on…..or whatever you want to do with it.
