On Saturday, for the second year in a row, I came second at the New Zealand National Poetry Slam Finals.
How pleased am I with that result?!
Honestly?
Not very. 😱
Now wait a moment before shoving me off the ledge of conclusions; conflating that with a lack of pride or gratefulness and allow me to explain...
It was my birthday yesterday. A day on which I think of my mum because... well... she did do the whole "pushing me out of her vagina" thing... and a day on which I try to thank my previous selves for carrying on enough for me to exist now.
I don't mean to sound morbid... I don't not like my birthday but I also don't not, not like my birthday. I also don't not like double negatives...
