Lament for the social media sick soul
Oh to live in a world free of memes and aphorisms
Oh to live in a world free of tropes and cliches
Yes, hurt people hurt people,
some anyway
but unhurt people hurt people
and hurt people get hurt
No, a sweet kiss doesn’t open every heart
Not everyone likes to be kissed
Or hugged
Or touched uninvited
Being grateful is not a miracle
it doesn’t cure cancer
or fix bad relationships
or make nasty people nice
Oh to live in a world where people are free
to be who they are
in each moment without expectation
they be different

Amen! So many truths here, Louise.
Yes, yes, yes, dear one.
