Virginity

When there’s a new year,
there’s always new problems,
and we
take two steps forward just to get knocked five steps down
until we’re so low to the ground
that all we can do is crawl before we walk.
The world that we live in
continues to spin
while we’re standing still getting dizzy until we lose consciousness and get raped by our government with taxes, audits, and laws
because even if you don’t like it,
you’re gonna do it.
I mean
life fucks us all,
but somehow we’re mostly still virgins.
What hypocrisy,
they want us to stay pure, but all the while fornication of our lives is being forced upon us.
I mean I love my virginity,
so how dare this bullshit government try to force racism and the HB56 law down my throat,
forcing me to swallow something that will affect who I am as a human being.
If this world is going to fuck me over
at least provide protection
with the right to bear arms as was promised in my constitution.
Even my educational system is trying to sodomize me into impurity with test scores
and big words.
Teachers tell me the correct term is discombobulated
but confused as shit sounds amazingly familiar
so don’t try to meticulously molest my liberal speech with your gargantuan vocabulary.
Even when I try to protect myself and my sanctum,
though still a virgin,
this world still
fucks me
senseless.
