This is by no means a guarantee
but it’s cerTainly worth saying
and absolutely worth hearing.

I just may stop disagreeing with you
if you stop telling me what to do.
It’s not that your ideas are the worst
but they’re not mine
and so
to me
they aren’t shit.
If I can’t support my own way
of being me,
who else will. you know?

So I hope you understand and appreciate
the advice I give
on how best to handle me
and please
this time
would you just do what I say?
