only one last wish

“please, i want to see the stars again,”

cried the fern, potted and strangled by its own roots.

“let me breathe the free air, one last time.”

“water. water please water.”

the cactus withered, unnoticed for too long.

“please. water. please.”

“don’t pick me. don’t pick me. don’t—“

the dandelion fell silent as deft fingers wove a crown of its fallen brethren.

“don’t pick me. don’t pick me.”

a single rose in a crystal vase said nothing at all.

its petals stained the water bloody.

“sunlight!”

the sunflower tried to tilt back after being twisted away from the window.

“sunlight! sunlight!”

“what did i do wrong?”

the chickweed died for the crime of being inconvenient.

“why did i have to go?”

“we’re still here! we’re still thriving!”

the forgotten garden’s chorus sang in harmony unheard.

“come harvest our crop we grew for you!”

“just the stars, before i go,”

said the fern.

a dying plant’s last wish.

This is from 2020, but it definitely still applies.

25-35 is such a weird fucking age because you’re 100% a bread-and-butter Standard Edition Millennial but the cool teens are like “ok boomer” because you have a Real Job but the actual Boomers at your job are like “I’m not going to listen to a literal fucking child” as they download 16 self-replicating viruses and meanwhile the Gen Xers are telling you to refinance a mortgage for a house you don’t have and you’re sitting there at the Adults Table with the pretty tasty casserole you cooked because you’ve finally figured out how to do that now but everyone is eating the Boomer’s store-bought macaroni instead and admittedly they do sort of taste similar so it probably wasn’t worth all the trouble of cooking from scratch and you’re trying to comfort the freshly-graduated sobbing 22-year-old next to you because she just woke up here and doesn’t know where she is but you have like maybe 5k dollars in a savings account labelled RETIREMENT that grows approx. twelve cents a year and you keep eating dry macaroni while smiling incomprehensibly and periodically blacking out like ??????????

btw the thing she couldn’t ignore was someone calling her out for saying anti-depressants/hormone therapy are only perscribed by lazy doctors

if any minors are following me

always make sure to start forging parents' signatures on the first day of class. that way, your teachers won't know that you've been forging signatures for the rest of the year

U.S. conservatives always talk about creating jobs but get SO MAD whenever anyone mentions banning prison labor like imagine the insane ammout of jobs that would be created literally overnight if companies in your country had to actually employ people instead of using slave labor from people that got caught with weed 10 years ago.
