26 / 30 : mother goose.

went shopping for school stuff today. next year i will be at ikea apartment shopping and shit. CRAZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

mother goose

i think i should be in the Guinness book
21 year old student from Cincinnati, Ohio
is a mother of 81 children 
i think that is something noteworthy.

and i don't remember the day that
they turned into smedium strangers
into my kids that i would go hard for
but it happened right under my nose

it's so standard now to 
get 8 am texts that scare the shit out of me
thinking its some sort of serious matter
and it's just one of the kids saying
good morning

and if i go more than a week
without playing a trashtalking session
of uno with them something is seriously
out of wack

and i've given advice on everything from
where to go to church to where to drink
what to wear and what is the least amount
to get away with without being called a skank
on books on boys on professors on pearls
on style on sexuality on school books on slow grinds
nothing really surprises me
anymore

and every once in awhile i'll talk to
one of my kids and they'll feel uninhibited
and express whatever is plaguing them and
i listen and it feels as if we have know each other
for far longer than two months

and every once in awhile i'll share
part of myself with them it is 
impossible to keep it all strictly business
we have made friendship bonds that i hope
are tight like glue

and even when i feel like all 81 of them
are asking me 81 different questions
all at the same time and i'm overwhelmed
i wouldn't change it 
for the world
