Heart
should I feel like I have less time?
live on the clock
cry
for your kindness
can’t hide the sadness
I project into your eyes
your soft words
so cautiously
sound
Mortality
rings it’s bell
you stand watch
and softent the blow
shoud I live
as if I don’t have time
dreaming dreams
what I’ve been living of

New Selves
Out the system
Lite projections and all
Transformation is the real
Not that man on the wall
If he’s telling the truth
Though tell me this
Why’d he have to go
And tell the white kids?
Love what is real
Where the Hamptons is
Niggas in the poorest
Saw this faux jesus shit
Forget about the slaves
Got my new selves growin
Drop the debt off
Forget what
The man wants you to do
Shake...

Sea
The lover in me is dead
stopped rolling
when she started for
herself
why?
There is no passion alive
her body yearns for escape
her mind dreams vacation
even the word makes me wet
let me sleep in so
my pussy can open like a flower
you see what it does to me
rest like the sun
settle, revive.
she is sleeping until july
and when she wakes up
like a powerful storm
she may wash...

Blood
I wanna call you my spouse
and not have to be married
you are not my partner
but my family
someone I love
and can’t get away from
no matter how much you might
get on my nerves.
You are in my blood
no matter how far away you might
or how separate our agendas
not brother or cuz
but something more
like twin or shadow
“cloud floating in my blue sky”
you are a part of
my ecosystem

Clothes, off my back
exploiters have forever been showing off the work of others and getting praised for their good taste. What about the hand work of those who know how to put their heart and soul into it, and still look good?
That’s that back home asthetic. That pride build asthetic. That “I come from good people” asthetic. That’s that DIY back when we use phtases like “From Scratch” and “Hand Made” come out with...

Bouyant life
no one would believe
the privacy of life
those unknowable events
fill days
which only to people
might
inaccurately record
make life
fully, what it is
mysteriously woven
intimacies.

Walk this earth
I was not
put on this earth
to love men
foul mouths
rough handed
deceptive
and pushy as they may be
wolves
I was not
put on
this earth
to be their
damsel in distress
wide eyed doe
plaything
I love life
words
like lillies
hear to be friend
lover
sister
Auntie
I dare to love a man
sometimes
I walk this earth
knowing it is true
learned young
what loving men can do

Woman: I'm smart
Patriarchy: Well you're probably ugly then
Woman: I'm creative
Patriarchy: You mean unattractive right?
Woman: I have all these incredible accomplishments
Patriarchy: Yeah but look how ugly you looked doing them
Woman: I have value
Patriarchy: Not if you're ugly lol
Woman: I'm conventionally-attractive & posted self-photos on my blog
Patriarchy: I'm so sick of these empty-headed chicks only caring about their looks. Just because you are attractive and get attention from men doesn't mean you are special or deserve respect. Why don't you read a book or do something productive with your life you dumb slut

This is what the school-to-prison pipeline looks like. This is how black youth criminalized.

She’s being charged as an ADULT
She’s being charged with a FELONY
If this all goes the way the prosecution wants, this young woman will be LEGALLY discriminated against for the rest of her life. No voting, housing...

Cake Treatment
when nothing helps
to keep me awake
not coffee or tea
I turn to cake
the energy that I digest
never suffice
for a good nights rest
but at least I’m happy
contented
and full of sweets
cause if I’m awake
I might as well eat.

Talking to people
who don’t understand
speak the same language
but can’t comprehend
the rythm the cadence
the meaning the vibe
lost in translation
I’m stuck on my side
from head to toe
wrapped
in misunderstanding
it wears a girl down
I’ll tell you that much
from anger to tears
This daily grind sucks.

Best Friend Breakup
You’re my best friend
but I don’t love you anymore.
You are not the light
of my life
you don’t give me butterflies
you know me
and I look into a future
without you
I mourn
loosing a best friend
because love died.

Listen, Don't listen.
People wanna tell me
what I Should Be Doing
tell me study
get a skill
like I don’t have enough
skill
time
money
people wanna tell me
think about it
rent
food on the table
as if
I’d listen
thank them for the favor
forget what I’ve sold
imagine
abundance
food on the table
joy.

Back to words
To pages scribbled;
I left you behind
I forgot you
negllected you
for finer things
prettier
more distracting
I wipe this mirror
clear of dust
and glance again
tempted
to get back
to words.
Change.
oh no. someone read some of my poetry for once and now I wanna cut down on the reposts so it is easier to find. BUT THERE IS SO MUCH AWESOME STUFF TO REPOST!

Hey. I need money and a place to stay.
Long story short, my partner of almost four years and I got into a fight today and when I tried (gently) pushing him away from me (he was in my face and I wanted him out) he grabbed my upper arm (I think there are gonna be bruises, certainly hurts enough for that) and dragged me a few feet.
