Stream of Consciousness (Jasmine)
Your hair is blond like the sun kissed your roots and long cause no one told you you could cut it

Scream’s Vacation

Goodbye to a bright-lit soul
Lost to the power of pain
The fate’s thread has been cut

Running through cool rain
Eating whatever you please
Drinking juice like nectar
Sleeping in “too late”
Accepting your big body
Taking mental health breaks
Finding your peace

An open letter to the secretary of health and human services
Mr. Kennedy,
For the love of all that is good
Understand that I am no disease
Calm the dogs you send after us
Kindness is the only way
You are the least qualified
Of all the people for the job

Mr. Hero
Dear Mr. Hero
Have you won the last war?
Oh Mr. Hero
Have you caught him before?He isn’t a sinner
But he’ll contemplate
Doing something a good man

We are the generation
That is falling apart
Breaking down
Flowing towards
A lake full of blood
Classmates feel the sting
Of a bullet pierced through a mind
Still learning how to be a grown up

she is maiden, mother, crone
Wind whispers through the air,
snatching at the girl,
sitting in the dark
her face shining though,
in the moonlight.She is anything but what she appears
