How do I Catch your interest? Once again I know You are bored with me
Well-intentioned stranger Eyeing me limp through HEB Why would you ask If I stepped on a nail? How do you know
If food is poetry The flavors The smells Singing in harmony Is poetry food?
No pido disculpas Por escribir Lo que siento Lo que llevo adentro Lo que vivo
Tomorrow Has not yet come It’s promises yet to be broken Tomorrow Is bigger
I need to tell you How to survive With our disposition It’s okay to cry Maybe
Bags full of diapers Cars waiting in line Smell coming from the load Ashamed it was mine He noticed my insulin pump
Clinical smells Polite strangers The only thing worse Than being here Is to not be able
The teenage rebels All fall in line Be they hippies Goths, rockers or skaters Moving from one mould
I had it all In my head And then I said Words I do not know which ones
Dime ¿Qué es su lengua materna? Ni inglés Ni español Sus padres no hablan inglés
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless
She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
