This city demands gumption.
Education and skill hard won.
With a bank account and debt to match.
Drive, emotional intelligence, health, fitness.
A capacity to thrive and endure hardship
I am no such soul to succeed in this marshmallow test.
I still haven’t found reason for staying aside from clinging to grief and nostalgia for this place.
What are we now and what do we choose to be?
