Re-solution


it was one of those 
moments
so cruel that I was too
shocked
to be angry
I feel the unguarded gasp in my chest
the terrible oh
of more terrible
knowing
this is one of those
lines
I will remember
what I need to do
to keep myself 
safe
from now on
perhaps
I keep that 
readiness
ready

  1. I was walking through Colchester yesterday when, from a passing car, some dick. referring to my blue butterfly print shirt, shouted "THATS A SHIRT AND A HALF!"
    Here's what I wish I had replied: YES, IT'S LOUD ISN'T IT; NEARLY AS LOUD AS YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!
    sigh - missed opportunity for starting a fight :]
