(2015)
Hillary’s beautiful Rose Bumpy’s favorite princess My mini-me, my little lion Cute button nose Framed by red hair
My grandfather told my father when he proposed to my mother on one condition
He says I could never Get away with murder For I leave Pieces of me everywhere
Turkey and dressing Loud and overwhelming Opinions and food fly Green bean casserole Too much laughter
Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
I look away Afraid to see Flicker of nerves In their eye A clench
The medication is not me But neither is the sickness it tre… You may hear its effects In my voice In my opinions
Destruction is fun But cannot be undone Smashed Trashed Crumpled
Well-intentioned stranger Eyeing me limp through HEB Why would you ask If I stepped on a nail? How do you know
I find richness In the mixture In what others disdain Young people lost Between two cultures
I need to tell you How to survive With our disposition It’s okay to cry Maybe
Apathy and incompetence In healthcare A fax they didn’t send Prescriptions delayed Labs to do again
I am sorry That I cannot be happier I know that I’d be prettier If I smiled If I could smile
I am unique In so many ways But while variety excites What we look for Is our common thread
I am a consumer Female Twenties I buy Cheap clothes and lattes
