Subconscious Self Reflecting
If you imagine your life a tree, maple
for this exercise – you will see how necessary you are for sap.
When there is gust at your trunk, the hollow
too sudan for winter, you have been
left out to hang dry. They want your skin as parchment
your figs as weights. “Where is your passion”, they’ll ask you
their plugs straddling your scrawl of bark.
When they drain you,
blood sticky and...

Anonymous asked: *sad face* how come your angry and don't think your pretty enough? somone or people making you feel insecure?
Skinny for Summer.
That is the goal.
ha. The goal.
Beauty is Subjective.
I don’t feel beautiful.
I feel hard. Abrasive. Angry. Poignant. Looted. Wingspan. No wind. Always on. Never off enough. Not quiet enough. Not pretty enough. Not sweet enough. Not vulnerable enough. Not weak enough. Not flexible enough.
It’s an empty feeling. It just feels like “Somebody tell me what to do to get this right.” All the time. And I get no answers.

Palin Invokes Anti-Semitism to Deflect Blame for Arizona Murders
If sarah palin were black
her daughter
carrying child out of wedlock
would be the public school accident. The girl with
too much time, her body, not barren enough
just perfect for the planting of a lost election. They would
suggest that, outside of political environment
she is still just as black as she was at birth.

elsilvero:
I bet you were the kind of kid who dug
for the perfect skipping rock,
flat like a pressed dandelion.
Your friends plunked clunkers in the pond.
Yours galloped for aquatic miles.
My hands were filthy too.
It was always worth it.
Someone Like You - Adele

This is my Personal Essay for NYU Gallatin,...
The word ‘Selfless’ is defined as “a concern with the needs and wishes of others rather than with one’s own”. I hear the word ‘selfless’ most often in conversation with young liberalists about the necessity of altruism in achieving lasting world peace. These conversations happen in the backs of chic coffee shops with free wifi (with the purchase of one soft drink)...

Letter to Favorite Musician: Fela Kuti
It is said
that you are given only what your marrow can protect you from.
The last time I sang Head of State
I sat beneath my own wall
and finally understood the cataclysm
of too many bricks in bone. I am built like a lighthouse
there are too many hearts on fire in here.
In every prayer,
I am wishing for more blind wind,
more clap of breath. The sound of impending death should not
sound...
