Step into the world
of a woman seeking to grow
everything she touches.
You never know,
you may find yourself
as a flower child, too!

I’d track each
missing body
of my family:
the living,
the dead,
& the bastards lucky
enough to never learn
of the thickness of our blood.
the drowning
that waits
to claim us.

excerpt from “aquarium: a black family drowns & comes up for air.”
I believe
that storytelling is a transformative call to action,be it to:
reflect
imagine new worlds
strengthen voice
heal
The work that I attach myself to is that which is creating universes where people are visible, held tenderly, extended grace and affirmed.
feel. deal. heal. reveal.
