In Poetry We Say....
You aren’t what I need to breathe like a fish out of water
Aren’t what I desire nor the sounds of laughter
That make me smile.

Liberty and Justice
“Liberty and Justice for All”
Liberty and justice
For people who are men
For people who are white
For people who are heterosexual
For people who are rich

all at once
Overwhelmed
by everything unexplainable,
everything that can't be put into words.
There is too much that needs to be let go
so it comes out silently,
but is never fully gone.

to my friends
to my family
I'm embarrassed
ashamed
scared of what could be
I have to find ways to sneakily deal with it
without anyone noticing

Yellow Rice
A craving beyond craving
a ballad to my love
yellow rice
I have eaten all of your relatives
now it is just you
and I can't find you
I need you
for my survival
as a happy person

When
When I find
That maybe I don't love it anymore -
When I lost the spark
When I realized
I don't really care
If I make it,
Or don't -
It scares me.
I wander around at practice,
