I want to comfort the world

I want to comfort the world,  but the world does not accept me.  It does not want the gentle warnings of a mother,  who can then comfort you...

Hotel



It’s a misconception that

a place has to be physical,

has to be brick and martyr -

Rather than having a heartbeat,

being a person.

I think of my exes as hotels;

somewhere I can rest and find 

refuge at, but can’t afford / to 

stay long term.

Instead of money -- time with them

is the funds that appear to run out. 

Instead of a bill at the end of my stay

( one that I often end up over-extending) --

I receive (something more like) a prescription

for (time and healing,

recommended) extensive physical (fighting with 

my) self--loathing and/before inevitably moving on.
