Epic Sigh or, This is how I feel about me

Here is my latest poem that I am willing to share. I wrote this after a session with my psychologist. No, she doesn't make me feel this way but she sure does make me think. And that is a good thing. Mostly. Please enjoy the poem.

I lack truth.
Seriously, I do not have
a clue.
Am I supposed to have
all my sh*t together?
Because I don't.
I don't even have sh*t,
never mind having it
together.

Insert an epic sigh
right here.
That is me,
evaluating.
Ruminating.
I do not like
the returns on this path.

I have been told
(yesterday even!)
that I am too hard
on myself.
Yeah, character flaw
and all those other
evaluative (judgmental)
adjectives.

I get it.
But seriously.
Am I really supposed to have
all my sh*t together?
Because I don't.
And probably never will.
