Grown-up

Was it for this I uttered prayers,
And sobbed and cursed and kicked the stairs,
That now, domestic as a plate,
I should retire at half-past eight?

-Edna St. Vincent Millay

I know, I know, two poems by Edna St. Vincent Millay in one day! “Sacre bleu!!”, *Gasp* etc. Don’t mind her, she’s trying to become my Tyler Knott Gregson this 2014!

Actually what had happened was….I read this poem and thought, “Edna girl, you talking ’bout me??”

And I just had to post it.
