megwritesDay 17: Write a poem that employs a rhyme scheme. It can be a poem in verse or not. “Tell it slant” or not.
It's hard, truly, not to give a fuck
I've tried it just this week
And haven't really had the best of luck
at finding the indifference I seek
The first problem is consequence
You can lay around all day for a while
And tie the dog out to the fence
But soon the dust and dishes begin to pile
Then you can say bad words roll of your back
And that you're hardly over here, not listening
But hurting still hurts like a sledgehammer whack
And anger still tempts like a diamond's glistening
