A throwback to the perception of life in M40 at the beginning of April 2021. Published in the SEEDLING magazine: https://issuu.com/seedlingmagazine/docs/seeds_web_final

Home is wherever
you feel at peace
a safe place
free from judgement
full of joy and laughter
today it’s M40
•
silent afternoons
everyone is here
no one’s talking
grab a blanket
take a nap on the couch
someone will join you
•
buzzing from life
at 22 PM
dinnertime
always vegetarian
changing the world
one bite at a time
•
have a small snack
and never stop eating
eat the dounts today
or get fat next week
don’t worry
it’s inevitable
•
your drink of choice
tea, fake beer, orange juice
why choose?
have ’em all at once
but make sure
to wash your cups
or someone will be mad

•
argue about vegetable milk
dishes in or next to the sink
the disappearance of dairy products
or blame M-Middle
for being awesome
and hiding the Camembert
•
find a movie
that no one has seen
or be scarred for life
watching documentaries
when’s the next
good movie coming out?
•
2 rooms and a boom
the only time
you can’t trust them
with your life
(if) you’re the President
•
a wild mix of 17 souls
blissfully not knowing
what comes after
we leave this magical place
all we know is
however long we stay
we’ll always have a home
right here, at M40
