Prevention

I want to move in with Millie,
I just have a few things in my way.

Money
Family
Job
The Likes

I want to buy another car,
but I just have a few things in my way.

Money
Job
The Likes

I want to be done,
I just have a few things in my way.

Money
Time
The Likes

Today I got so tired of it all.
I had no control over

space
and
time

Then the gods handed me those orange scissors
(or was it the Devil?)

Snip cut
Cut snip
Red hair

falling
to the ground.

You know the worst thing about all this?
I have gray knees.

Who is Millie? I love your repeat but differently the list of money family job the likes....Can you explain the gray knees, I have some ideas but I'm not sure....

Millie is someone I made up.
The gray knees, yes--I think it was either when my jeans just had holes in the knees or after I had made my jeans into shorts, but I was wearing some gray leggings underneath my jeans and hence, had gray knees.
I'd like to know what your ideas were regarding my gray knees though. They're probably more interesting than mine.
