Personal Essay

What started as a blog, turned into a widely-read commentary on life...

It’s better to wait until you gain perspective. When you’re in the middle of it all, you catch shards of truth and emotion as they come whizzing by, but it’s not until after the dust settles and you step outside that you can really see. And, it’s not that you aren’t still completely covered in debris, but at least at that point you can look back at the scene and see the place in which your body once stood.

Poet

Writer of poetry (as necessity). Speaker of poetry (for fun).

 
Brown.
Like the puddle on the corner swelling with life,
eyes cut.
And it hurts,
because I’m hurting

him.

I want my chest to feel things
chemical reactions to occur,
but I can’t make science
instance,
I can’t decide
my insides stir.

This is a sick game
played by hearts and wine
when limbs entwine
in shared vibration.
But worlds collide
and that science
subsides
and life

works

its

way

into

crevices.
