POETRY ARTICLES & ESSAYS PERSIAN

Things to care about in your late twenties may include:

drinking enough water
being able
able to run
and making some money

what your ‘boss’ thinks
not what “people” think

taking out the trash
saying I love you
and meaning it
learning about your family history through the eldest member of your clan
– not believing everything you hear about your family, or history –

a more adult mode of transportation
learning to cook more than 3 types of food
(brunch doesn’t count)

the proper way to order wine
not drinking every night

tallying up how much time
you may be wasting
on worthless friendships / relationships

the books you really – really – need to finish
or start reading

an effective method of
keeping up with your calendar
(own a form of calendar)

impressive anecdotes
for interesting parties
and not
repeating or overusing said anecdotes

the sober enjoyment of quality sex
as opposed to the opposite

and learning to love
yourself, sure, of course, first
and also maybe
others.

Make a Mess

“if they find you, they do.
if they don’t, at least you
should know exactly where you are.”
