Won’t mind its own business Jumping from the Truths Lane and Fear Lane. Kidnapping me from good relationships Under threat of “What if I…” The binds are relaxed, But I am trained Not to test fate, When fate is stressed. Rarely do I slip away quietly, But sometimes I do Let’s hope momentum Breaks theContinue reading “My Mind”

Rising to the Label
I am sick of being talked “roundabout “ Denigrated for being in a state of being That I had no say in, though it is 50.1% what I am, and where I go. I am not used to fighting for equal ground, But for a real say. I am studying child law. But, I doContinue reading “Rising to the Label”
Wake up Dancing ๐
I hope you can find a day When you can wake up And dance on top the sparks of chaos For no other reason, Than the striking of a mood. Not for being alive, Not for the fiction of should, And not as a matter of pity porn. The morning may be cool, The skyContinue reading “Wake up Dancing ๐”
Control
My life, the yo-yo. Always fishing for the weekend. I start each week with a plan, A good one, I’m always sure. Until it fails, until I get overwhelmed, My plan blown up and every piece flying. I am lucky, I remind myself, When shrapnel doesn’t hit my gut But, Just because my plans fracture.Continue reading “Control”

I practiced for my move to law school, Mobility, daily tasks, healthy habits, And it was hard as fluc. I move, andContinue reading “Into The Wild”
Articulate
I want to change the way The worst of us is viewed, Or those with that label. So that we can strengthen our nation. Instead of wasting humanity, But, asking me, to tell you in 500 words. Is a joke. I want to be a catalyst and I will likely die, Before the work isContinue reading “Articulate”
Accountability
They want someone to be accountable, So they don’t take accountability, for what they do to make it happen. Blue as the ocean clear, Turned purple and sour With blood and tears. And the jailed doves Don’t show rage, For the broken bones in their wings and legs Beaten and de-feathered After years The doveContinue reading “Accountability”
An Historic Marker
โThis is the first piece written, for a pen pal, in my new home!
Emotional Space
I needed help To move on, And it was going To take her time, Interrupted her, Even with warning. And because ability Has always been faulty, Faultless as that is. They injected anger Into my habitat My skin stung, Without consumption. And I wanted to scream, How dare you! I didn’t choose, And I continueContinue reading “Emotional Space”
