​Eureka?

I had an epiphany this midmorning

Adulting apperantly, simply not my calling

No more groveling than being clever

Was ever going to bring my shit together

It came unto me quite aggressively

As I was taking care of my chores responsibly

I’d remembered to clean the kitchen cupboards

As they hadn’t seen daylight for at least five fortnights

My veggies had a metamorphosis of some kind

I mourned the forgotten in my mind

How’d my potato turn into this alien kind?

I didn’t even know it could grow that much

Let alone that it’s eyes could peer into my soul as such

But I didn’t dare speak as it looked like it could answer

And reveal all the childish lies for which I could never stand for

So there it was, it’s eyes blinking at me

my epiphany

I’m too old for this shit

But I guess there was some truth to it

Growing up really takes forever

However, I guess, better late than never.
