"My desires are not really compatible. I want a countryside home in the middle of the city. A deeply loyal open marriage. To be a wealthy poet." Beautifully put.
As always I enjoyed reading your article Poppy :) I struggle with friendships, a lot of that is related to adhd. I'm not great with small talk and I can relate to having friendships that are memorable. It is difficult to get to a point where i can be myself, aside from performing at open mics. I hope my adhd diagnosis will help me to embrace who I am as a person more. Thanks for a thought provoking article. And any time you want to read a poem together I'd be happy to, sounds like a cool idea!

Thank you for reading and commenting Michael <3
I definitely relate re: social discomfort and performance.
Let's do a poem next time we see each other! :)
