unhinged
so
strong
that
my
knees
buckled
under
my
own
weight
after
i
finished
recording
my
dying
father's
favorite
violin
song
before
i
got
on
the
only
first
class
flight
i've
ever
taken
to
watch
him
die
so
strong
that
i
completely
backed
off
after
being
publicly
shamed
and
humiliated
for
calling
my
fellow writer's sangha
out
for
their
fascist
enabling
during
covid
because
myself
and
at
least
one
other
person
were
unvaccinated
and
a
college
professor
OF
HISTORY
NO
FUCKING
LESS
was
shaming
us
and
everyone
like
us
for
our
impurity
because
one
of
the
supposed
progressive
liberals
who
had
no
problem
violating nuremberg
codes
during
covid
was
jewish
so
by
no
means
could
she
ever
be
a
fascist
or
a
fascist
sympathizer
(
just
ask
the
entire
country
of
israel
but
i
digress
)
so
her
feelings
trumped
my
rights
and
to
this
day
i
have
stayed
silent
so
strong
that
i
stopped
using
my
name
here
because
of
my
digital
and
private
banishment
for
my
righteous indignation
at
the
appeasement
of
evil
so
that
even
when
anonymous
i
was
shamed
and
shrieked
at
told
to
shut
up
when
i
thought
FEMALES
should
be
able
to
have
our
own
damn
spaces
of
our
own
damn
choosing
and
children
should
be
off
limits
i
was
told
i
couldn't
possibly
care
about
that
even
though
i've
been
a
masculine
female
my
entire
life
and
a
teacher
for
fifteen
years
i
shut
up
like
i
was
told
and
then
was
shamed
for
doing
exactly
what
i
was
told
so
strong
i've
had
numerous
addictions
for
decades
that
i
can't
shake
so
strong
i
wither
without
hugs
and
still
cry
from
the
grief
of
losing
my
father
so
strong
that
i
had
to
move
recently
because
i
could
not
get
a
one
night
stand
to
quit
knocking
on
my
door
trying
to
enter
my
apartment
and
the
anxiety
of
waking
to
a
man
i
knew
was
stronger
than
me
because
he
had
held
me
down
(
to
eventually
let
me
go
)
trying
to
enter
my
apartment
when
i
finally
realized
how
my
entire
body
was
straining
and
shaking
and
i
spent
five
days
moving
up
and
down
a
flight
of
stairs
when
i
should
have
been
leaving
entirely
indestructible
secure
intense
forceful
invioable
briliant
intense
deep
so
strong
i've
had
to
leave
way
too
many
abusers
rather
than
never
falling
into
those
quantum_entanglement
s
in
the
first
place
so
strong
i
still
crave
acceptance
and
touch
as
i
actively alienate
whatever
trips
my
wire
meaningless
invioable

IGG
Glad
you
are
here
unhinged
,
I
have
missed
seeing
you
around
.
I
am
sorry
to
hear
about
your
dad
-
hope
you
are
doing
ok
and
that
you
are
being
kind
to
yourself
.
I
lost
my
dad
a
few
years
ago
and
I
still
struggle
with
the
grief
sometimes
-
I
think
it's
ok
to
not
be
strong
all
the
time
,
sometimes
the
weight
of
everything
is
too
much
.
You
have
the
strength
within
you
and
the
new
,
shiny
metal
of
some
of
it
is
still
being
forged
each
day
-
have
no
fear
.
Sending
good
vibes
to
you
across
the
blue
.
