A Meal
when you see me
do you see a delicacy?
or just measly slop for you to consume?
is your grovel some starving man’s desperate plea to get a taste?
or are you really even hungry?
a stomach larger than your eyes which is strange considering yours are so wide, fixated on me
In some ways I feel like a gorgeous pig
flattered by your admiration but living in fear of the slaughter that will surely come
you will trick me into a room waiting with your fork ready to consume
and when your hunger is satiated what will you do?
will you continue to gorge and gorge and gorge?
or will you mourn?
will you mourn the place I once held in your mind and regret you ever tasted me in the first place?
You never slow before making yourself sick. Yet I give until every inch of my bones have been licked clean
Read the rest of the poem Show less
may I plead?
that you take your time with me
take your time to relish in my flavors
and all the things that make me delectable
will you please?
see me as a delicacy.

the rights and wrongs of generations
"Sometimes I wonder about the choices of right and wrong. So many times are we told to pick the right choice even if it's not the decision we desire. Well the problem at hand is that what I desire is usually "wrong". Perhaps why I can give in and justify my self diagnoses of being a "bad person". But what is right and wrong? Who decides that? Sometimes people can make a wrong choice but in the end, it turn out right. My grandmother cheated on my grandpa and had my father. It is wrong, because she deceived, and in turn destroyed a whole line of full blooded lineage that could have existed. On the other hand, it is right. Because here I am. Alive and able to have made my presence in the family as strong as one could with just water. Sometimes I wonder if the way my life is, happens to be because of my grandmother's choice. "The daughter of a bastard son cursed to reap the sins of the one who lay it upon her years ago." That could just be me though. I do always make the wrong decision." -
