Not Everything is Written in the Stars
Not everything is written in the stars,
but writers find a home in connecting the dots,
in relaying defense mechanisms through the signs.
Because you see,
zodiacs should tell you why you feel how you feel and do what you do
and why you are who you are.
Zodiacs know why he is your ex,
and why he is the best new prospect
Zodiacs know how we can thrive in the new year.
Readers want what they want
The market is hungry,
the market is fed.
Pop astrology pieces explode on the internet,
filling up space where prose is outnumbered,
obliterated for an audience.
But not everything is written in the stars;
we don’t need explanations for it all.
We need to be aware.
We need to just live.
