Anotherandom - Duck The World - Grey

My phone corrects my “fuck.”
Maybe that says everything, how the world edits us before we even get the words out.

Duck society.
Duck the system.
Duck your notifications.
Duck deadlines.
Duck small talk.
Duck your boss.
Duck expectations.
Duck the algorithm.
Duck your therapist’s “progress chart.”
Duck being well-adjusted.
Duck pretending we’re fine.
Duck filter.
Duck survival.
Duck pretending to be okay.
Duck growing up.
Duck everything that asked me to change.
Duck this version of me that stopped feeling real.
Duck judgement.
Duck ideology.
Duck closure.
Duck situationship.
Duck anyone who told me to calm down.

We were forced to reshape ourselves by other people’s standards, their noise, their stupid rules, the kind of people who don’t even understand themselves.

So no. You be you.
Fuck the world.
