Kate Baer, from And Yet: Poems; “Idea”

[Text ID: “I will enjoy this life. I will open it like a peach in season, suck the juice from every finger, run my tongue over my chin. I will not worry about clichés or uninvited guests peering in my windows. I will love and be loved. Save and be saved a thousand times. I will let the want into my body, bless the heat under my skin. My life, I will not waste it. I will enjoy this life.”]

Questions I think to myself a lot when confronted with certain kinds of Online Posting:

Do you want a better world, or do you want revenge on those you think aren’t doing enough to improve it?

Do you want a more just world, or do you want to see bad people suffer merciless punishment?

Do you want a less oppressive world, or do you want the reins of power for yourself?

Do you want to do the right thing, or do you want to feel righteous?

I’VE ALWAYS FELT THAT SOME THINGS ARE MEANT TO REMAIN OURS ALONE, TO BE HELD CLOSE UNTOUCHED BY THE WORLD’S GAZE IT’S NOT ABOUT SECRECY IT’S ABOUT PRESERVING WHAT’S SACRED WHAT’S REAL I DON’T NEED EVERY PART OF MYSELF TO BE SEEN OR KNOWN SOME TRUTHS ARE SIMPLY TOO INTIMATE FOR THE NOISE OUT THERE.
