keep going
one of the secrets
of life
involves movement
cleaning
keep the broom working
the dust pan
looks ready to
ponce

heart

wondered

sometimes if

we

even had a

heart

heart

wondered

sometimes

if she even had

a heart

20/20

am watching

not really

can not

see that far

child

the child in everyone

dancing

in a room filled

with windows

and mirrors

 

 

neither

to

look at me

you

would not believe that

I could understand

anything

dumb or invisible

neither

you

cannot

see my heart

feel my thoughts

live my life

or

even grasp

how happy

I can be

in this sorrow

refund

I want a refund

that

poem sucked so bad

that

I want a refund

okay

fucked

fucked you

in

the past

now

we promise

never

to fuck you

again

old

thought you were old

and

you were

there is a hole now

never gonna fill

step up

cannot even see

the other side

I can hear it though

when I listen

porch

on the porch

with the swing

in a room

full

of white people

still

speaking witch hunt

literally

god

made me do

it
