Now is a time to be true to who we are, to who, as humans, we are meant to be...

in your own way.
My tongue trips

words swim away

There's something wrong with the world.
Keep being weird.
Keep howling against the storm.
Keep writing erotic stories about moon ghosts.
Keep being a spark in the darkness, and hope for a better tomorrow.

they named me
so many things I am not
and I carried their namings
shoulders besieged by the weight
footsteps heavy enough to crack concrete
till you plucked the words like harp strings
and made me light and music
you asked me which names
I actually belong to
and let me
rest there
