Analysis of "how does it feel to grow up?"



“how does it feel to grow up?”

your home is the first grave you will ever have
your childhood bed, a casket, adorned in light pink
stuffed animals watching as you enter a state of holiness

it is the first place you die, yes,
but that is also when you become a god
