Stretch Zone

it's spring
and whether I like it or not
I'm growing 
out of this
I feel the stretch
stretch zone
from teen teaching 
I wonder where they are now
and if I would be envious of them 
for meeting criteria I have no desire for 
It's dare
I equate my worth to working for someone else
and when a man pursues me
but I'm noticing the subtleties in me
being cognizant not to raise the bar
every 6 hours
what's the half life of any revelation?
what percentage of illusion 
reflects running out of time?
maybe I can rest in the 
appreciation 
that it stopped raining long enough 
for me to walk inside
