John

John

by Seth Shankland

 

I have a job

I work hard

I support my family

 

I love my nephew

I visit my mom in the hospital

I share what I have with my family

I always choose my family over work

 

But none of that matters when

I’m acting bi-polar

I’m smoking weed too much

I’m drinking until I’m drunk

I’m yelling at my mom for no reason

 

I’m a good man who can turn into a monster.
