Burkowski Makes Me

Burkowski makes me want to buy a typewriter

so I can pound out my words of pain

and invite the universe to commiserate

Burkowski makes me want to buy a typewriter

so I can privately speak my truth

without judgment or fear of offending my benefactors

Burkowski makes me want to buy a typewriter

so I can say what needs to be said

without waiting for my turn to speak

Burkowski makes me want to buy a typewriter

so I can process my emotions, too

without being dismissed or ignored

Burkowski makes me want to buy a typewriter

so I can feel the depths of who I am

without hiding behind rainbows and sunshine

Burkowski makes me want to buy a typewriter
