each valued experience
a perspective ours alone
an interpretation through our lens
our brains imbue us with shading
while simultaneously seeking order
giving our perspective a well-rounded notion of things
we attach value
based on reflective assumptions
each interaction can fill us, leave us feeling defeated…
…and every other shift on the spectrum of human experience
Great job on this! Lovely poetry! ❤

The worst shift is the shift where you get the shaft, and no one gives a shit. I’d complain to my congressman, but he’s a Republican.

I totallly get that. But seriously, keep speaking up. They HAVE to get on the right side eventually. If only because they may lose a vote.
