Who said that?
And how did it feel?
Did they have a guilty conscience they carried heavy too,
and when in trying to clean up their guilty conscience – by
throwing out and tossing accurately the piles of sharp stones
into other people’s spaces –
tossing the rocks you, like them did or do, use to mock and maim.
Stones made up of hardened Never-Ever apologizing
and rocks made from layers of mineralized Never-Ever making up for the harm done and
been doing? Still doing?
Instead, are were they like you are behaving now-
not washing your own dishes or dirty laundry, and
doing your own boring homework, and healthy self-care?
Did they too, like you, in
choosing to
procrastinate in
using your precious time energy and attention wisely and instead wasting it cowardly chewing out others non-stop off and online weirdly
extraordinarily name-calling, compulsively for shock value, confusingly
fishing for someone egging on anyone
to accept the grief guilt confusion and feelings of humiliation and shame
as a child does – taking on the blame that is not theirs –
like they did – whoever trolled you,
and now you are doing this too now as an adult, and did,
when you took on a guilty conscience as a kid?
