the one thing the government still has no control over

this isn’t fair

Janet Kuypers

this isn’t fair
I was going to start
being a punk girl now,

dying the bottom of my hair
bright red

and hey, I’m supposed to
go off any marry
one of my closest friends
in a few months
so I’m supposed to officiate a wedding
and celebrate with them,
and be able to party
and laugh

and then you have to throw this curve ball at me

this isn’t fair
this isn’t right
this is supposed to be a time to celebrate
to fly in the face of everything
and stick your tongue out
and say, so what, I can have fun

but

this isn’t fair of you, God

why do you make me work so hard
why do you change everything at the last minute

we’ve worked to stop this
we’ve done everything we could
we’ve done our damnedest to stop this
we’ve done our damnedest to stop you

stop flexing your muscles
stop proving us wrong

I’ve tried to figure you out
and you’re not playing fair

###

what does your God do
when you feel like you have it all
I’ve learned that God doesn’t kill you
it just drops you
and says,
you’ve had it all figured out before
what do you do now?

well, you’re killing her
and leaving me wondering how to pick up the pieces
and how to fly in the face of everything
despite everything
