"Traumatic things ... happen to black people, but then you still have to go to work the next day, or you still have to wake up and teach a cla...

Simon Armitage - I Say I Say I Say

Anyone here had a go at themselves 
for a laugh? Anyone opened their wrists 
with a blade in the bath? Those in the dark 
at the back, listen hard. Those at the front 
in the know, those of us who have, hands up, 
let's show that inch of lacerated skin 
between the forearm and the fist. Let's tell it 
like it is: strong drink, a crimson tidemark 
round the tub, a yard of lint, white towels 
washed a dozen times, still pink. Tough luck. 
A passion then for watches, bangles, cuffs. 
A likely story: you we...

Oscar Gonzalez - We All Return to the Place Where We Were Born

What remains of my childhood

like an oceanic green mist over the afternoon.

 

Then, crickets would forge in the wind
their deep music of centuries
and the purple fragrances of Grandmother
always would receive without questions
our return home.

 

The hammock shivering in the breeze
like the trembling voice of light at dusk,
the unforeseeable future
that would never exist without Mother,
the Tall tales that filled
with their most engaging lunar weight ou...
