It Rained on Me

...
It rained on me in the dry season. 
Season jacketing me with dust, 
Dust absorbed my real hope.

Hope fractured in time, 
Time unendingly discolored my soul. 
Soul pleaded for light.

Light...

F-CK YOU - On Cybercoercion

rotten carcass

...I have calluses on the inside of my body.

I am smooth and polished on the outside.

Butterfly Venom

...Was it worth
Butchering the butterflies 
We gave each other? 

Were they not 
Pretty enough?

For your unstable world?

The Flaws

...The flaws,

The way that my shoulders are broader than they need to be,
So that the small, tight tops never fit right,
So that I look muscular,
“Like a man,” my mother says,

The way my nose i...

Bed Used Without Permission

...So, you thought you have the right
To in my bed pass a night,
Not alone, with your lover,
Vulgar love-making brave,
Sensual pleasures coarsely crave…
