THRUST INTO THIS WORLD
Kicking and screaming
when you’ve had perfection.
You’ll never get over the trauma
of birth— like everybody else.
NEVER!
We long to be loved unconditionally
like the way we once were taken care of.
Welcome to the world where you have to earn love
in order to be loved back.
With a little bit of luck, you’re on your way
If and only if, you can be radically good.
