insandouts of Days and Notdays

#nationaldayof…..

#anythingyouwantittobe

You get excited about some
and want me to join you

I’m no different

Except I AM different
and I want you to…

cheer
applaud
bestow a brotherly
fistpoundontheback

hug me

notice me
acknowledge me

me
me
me

then I smother the self-absorption
extinguish the ego
assume the misalignment of algorithms
pullupmybigboypants

and realize I
never
celebrated
#nationalchickenandwafflesday
with
you.

I’m sorry.

to me it was just August 5th

I’ll still give you a fist pound
and wipe the syrup off your chin
if you want

on October 12th

Happy Columbus Day
er, Native American Day
umm, Indigenous Peoples Day

#NationalKickButtDay

There.

That works.

for me.
