wasting time is one of the most valuable things

you can do to rebel,

so sometimes that just means i’ll spend three hours

eating one thing of red jell-o,

because i don’t know how else to express my dissatisfaction

just because there’s dirty dishes in my sink overnight

doesn’t mean i haven’t figured out my life out yet,

but that isn’t to suggest i have,

i was just hoping that you might lend me some slack

for a moment

while i go through the motions of figuring out what’s this all about
