"I am not duty-bound to resolve the difficulties I create. May my ideas always be somewhat disjunct, or even appear to contradict one another, if only they are ideas in which readers will find material that stirs them to think for themselves".
Ephraim Lessing

We live in a broken world

I am once again mine.
It was not so before
I belonged to none
I belonged to all

I am in control
Like I was not before
I relinquished self
I relinquished all

I am in awe of myself
Like I was not before
I was not enough 
I could not ever be enough

I am intelligent
Like I have always been
Somehow that is a bad thing
How is that a bad thing?

I am somewhat pretty
Like I have always been
I don't play with it, 
that is a bad thing, it seems. 



We live in a broken world
