Tough girl

[creativesoul]

I cry when the mean agent holds hands with a cancer patient
She never loves anyone until now

It seems so pure so filled
With love- the lights - the ballet
Dancing on dreams of romance
Trapped in a house
The air conditioning is on-

Let no rays of piercing sunlight in

The foot hobbles to the kitchen
To soak the slimy pans
Feeling privileged to have an Electric shopping cart
I have ice cream
I am empowered
I with tobacco
Herbal teas and meat
Sage and angels
Going to hike again with this new foot
Do yoga
Swim
My balance may be restored
I won’t have to be disabled anymore
I hope
The tough girl would have done this differently
More pills and lots of ppl
The one in me- protects - and said” sure- you can take drugs- but you have to go to the aa convention “
Because it is not a sure thing
It could go either way
The tough girl makes fun of moderation
And can never get enough

The the one in me - tells the doctors - no
More drugs
They see her
But the tough girl thinks she will entice
Her to misbehave
Maybe
It has happened before

Hammered in 1980 the tough girl dances in studio 54
Andy Warhol and tiny Tim
Broke my toe as a dancing queen

Back in the day
When self s esteemable acts
Was more dope
