For The Things That I Cannot Change

what can i do?
i simply have to keep
them
like a page in the book
i make some dog ears
for tomorrow
i shall read them again
find some words
that anger me
and stir me to
envy
from there i shall stop
and reread
and reinvent myself
and in time proclaim
this is me
take it or leave it
