It's not #VerseThursday yet but I don't know why I'd wait to share a poem that moved me.
"Planet" by Catherine Pierce
"I’m ashamed

to say that most days I forget this planet. That most days

I think about dentist appointments and plagiarists

and the various ways I can try to protect my body from itself."

If I could,

I'd find my younger self in those woods and stop her.
I'd say, Someday you'll carry your cruelties with you

and you'll never be able to set them down. Keep walking now.
Keep pretending you know of nothing but kindness.
