(2014)
Would I rather be A younger me? More productive Stronger Would i have to give up
La presión atrapada Busca por donde salir Tapo mi boca Se me sale por los ojos Tapo mis ojos
I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide
A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music
I am a consumer Female Twenties I buy Cheap clothes and lattes
This world is covered in bias It’s all over you It’s all over me too This world is covered in bias It shades our words
A family trait Massage Is our vice No shame Take what
Down to earth I am but of dust Dust particles I see floating in the air Carbon molecules
If food is poetry The flavors The smells Singing in harmony Is poetry food?
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
Nothing makes people flee Like reading them poetry They value it in theory But please don’t make them read Surprise me with your verse
Dime ¿Qué es su lengua materna? Ni inglés Ni español Sus padres no hablan inglés
Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless
Her fingernails Natural Long Pointed On fingers
I am unique In so many ways But while variety excites What we look for Is our common thread
