I Have No Advice For You
No tricks, no hacks, no 12 steps

I have no advice
for you —
no tricks, no hacks
to pure unadulterated
happiness
no path to
heal, no 12
step program
to rediscover
your naked
inner- child
no guide to
success, no hack
to helium-filled
glee, no escape
route from the
catastrophe of
nine to five to
nine to five stuck
on repeat like a
bad song you
can’t get out
of your head,
like a sitcom
that should have
been cancelled
last decade
what have I achieved?
you ask
I’ve achieved pain.
I’ve achieved betrayal,
disloyalty, disillusionment,
disenchantment —
every writer’s true
bread and butter
