Roses Came Up in Outer Space

I used to love space and now a photo
Of Earth makes me nauseated

Shit happens for reasons I can’t explain
Like how I used to detest olives

And now I could eat them by the handful
Maybe the zodiac messed with my gut bacteria

Maybe there’s something to be said for
Instagram astrologers crashing out on the feed

Still annoyed with myself for seven days
In Greece and not a single olive

Maybe I’m entering my villain era
Or maybe it’s finally come to a close

I have yet to teach my child
If there are roses there are thorns

    “entering my villain era

    Villain era is a pretty great book title

  3. Maybe I’m entering my villain era – we’ll have fun hanging out there!

  4. one more cheerleader for your villain era here! (also wow, maybe I’ll like olives one day, too)
