10 X 1 = 10

By Kat Myrman 
10 X 1 = 10

remember
when a fact
was a fact?

when 

ten times one was
always ten, not
up for debate
or opinion

when

the truth meant something 
and lies were abhorred?
we can’t even trust
our own eyes…I heard
the sky is falling

(did you just look up?) 😉

whatever

By Kat Myrman 
whatever

whatever
used to be
just a word

choice

deferred, polite,
a way to say,
one conveys trust,
perhaps concern

when

we still cared about
other people, to say
‘whatever you need’
and really mean it…
I know…whatever…
