it's bad
it's really really bad
opression is the new fruit loops
make no mistake
be strong, follow love
and come and sit on my porch

standing toe to toe
with the oppressor
i am a rock
impenetratable stone
with a heart that dances wildly
against a hot summer sky
take that, officer burke

i miss the weight of your arm
across my body
as i listen to you breathe in my ear
while i pretend to be asleep

i miss your smile
but mostly your laugh
ok mostly your body
i miss the way you pull me in to you

i am gone in your touch
come home soon

birth is a swift thing


living takes longer



fear is always the truth

that stares us down



we were not afraid to be born

we should not be afraid to fly
