It’s tough when you need help
and it’s all your own fault
But the worlds a hard place,
and the worst things are sometimes balanced
by the little things in your life
Like “Scrubs” or a good novel
great poetry and the taste of warm chocolate-chip cookies
and the way the road smells after it rains
And those days that Dad is in a good enough mood
to let you put your music on while you drive him somewhere
The extra rep you hit in the gym, the good ache in your legs
after a long long run. But somehow
those things aren’t always enough to help
I hope they are this time, please God
I hope they are this time.

"When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.
-Jonathan Swift "Thoughts on Various Subjects Moral and Diverting""A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy O'Toole
"Oh, it needs fucking much improvement"?
well you know, the poem itself is nicely written, but somehow a bit of the mood is lost in it...

Yes, I agree that some of the mood is lost, and I don't know if that was particularly deliberate or not. But thanks, I myself didn't think it was particularly nicely written haha
