‘Teacher Shortage’ is a misnomer
We’re burned out and giving up
When admin doesn’t back us
Because parents scare them
And the county only worries
About going viral and lawsuits
Meanwhile, the kids don’t believe
That natural consequences exist
Why should they, when leaders
Get away with murder, live on TV
9.9.19
We all change, time sees to that
We lose parts along the way
In war those we love the most
Don’t always come home again.
5.7.19
Ten days until
a new countdown
of degrees
of rings
of jobs
of houses
of anniversaries
Reading drunk thoughts is hella easy
I’ll try to sleep tonight
Without you it’s hard
To remember to close
My eyes and try
“Your decision. Are you better than your master would have been to you?”
There’s wild things in the seas
As alien as you and me
The stars are the same
Full of dreams far away
We all change. Time time sees to that
