“Humanity”
People are Foolish,
Fallible, Weak. They
always Disappoint.
Yet they are also Surprising,
Strong, Kind. They can
Love endlessly.
The hypocrisy
is fundamental to
Humanity

“Balance”
Losing yourself is
a gift
when nothing
can shatter
the progression
of passionate pursuit, but
a curse
when you kill
even the consideration
of a gut-check
question
p.s.

“Proud Story”
Blood on a marble floor
spilled by spit, derision,
and paranoia,
is the proud story of
white people too blinded
by lies & fables
to see their champions
crush the lie of manifest
destiny under the heel
of fabricated freedom &
shackled opportunity
p.s.

“Aren’t Meant”
This idea that humans
‘aren’t meant’ for what
you deem unworthy is
a lie
humanity’s greatest gift
is deriving meaning
out of the meaningless
& rationalizing utter
inhumanity; we rationalize
everything
p.s.

“A Mess”
Lost in the
tangle of desperate
limbs, themselves
lost in the
jerk & hitch
of the cloying
rhythm of numb fingers
stumbling for
bootstraps

“We Are”

“Self-Directed, Too”
Try to imagine:
the existential exhaustion &
the emotional trauma
you felt for moments
instead hounds you
every day, waiting, &
preying now as then
as then
as then
as then
