maybe it's just me

i spit out the few teeth i lost in that 
fight three years ago 
now, in the middle of a conversation
about absolutely nothing
and nobody really 
says anything
about it, no one
even hesitates. i 
guess i'm just sick 
of hoping for things
that don't exist
and expecting 

more;
i guess it's 
time i just grew 
up or something, maybe 
start reading the 
paper or getting into 
political arguments (i'll 
be sure to pick a specific 
side this time).
maybe it's just too late
to say anything 
important
(and be heard).

LOL what side are you on dear Charlotte the write side or the left or are you to the left of the right smack dab in between or just not choosing a side cause that's a choice to says neil peart anyhow:) I have never been able to keep my upper front teeth bu the way so I know your pain cant wait for dentures much easier to replace and much less painful synthetic teeth that's the ticket! I loved this poem it made me laugh and then ramble and then laugh a bit more:)

Haha, choosing to follow Neil Peart and stay true to no side! On the side of humanity - don't know where that'll take me other than into some positive vibes, right? But yes! Synthetic teeth to fix everything! Honestlly just so glad you enjoyed this poem! Gave me a little giggle even if the matter was a little darker; glad I wasn't alone :') To rambling thoughts following art!
