- sitting here - I’m sitting here                                     with you mum is a candle amongst the dead your daughter is all pain now the high ceiling makes me calm i don’t know what to think of God your prayer is habit i’m still learning how to walk sitting here with you not knowing how to your hands are beautiful your eyes just lost a daughter you show me your scars you filled them with gold 80 years old and now new ones you’re going to be buried with — children and parents, let’s grief. you take my hand - sitting here  - I’m sitting here                                  beside you you're a candle amongst the dead your body for the first time freed the high ceiling makes me calm you believed - we all had God my prayer is getting better still a long way to go sitting beside you not knowing how to show show them your hands show them the way you prayed show them your scars and the years in between the bravery they buried you with — children and parents, let’s grief I’ll stay

Queer is asking broken systems if everyone gets to breath again - now - Queer is a broken system Queer is every colour you ever seen and every sound you ever heard Queer is movement moving like a river - calm Queer is movement moving like a river - violent Queer is home, un umbrella to make a home for many and few and everyone and no one Queer is thoughts and bodies and *** and hands and hearts Queer is the way I walk and sleep and love and work and write Queer is my nose touching your nose Queer is the kiss you give me on my forehead Queer is the fear and the truth and the fear of truth Queer is more true then all the other **** Queer is Crip and Femme and the Working class Queer has many friends, queer loves and inspires and takes care of its friends Queer becomes its friends. Invisible, beautiful and broken Queer is pride for broken backs Queer is when the broken they see is what makes you whole Queer is queer is queer.

my angel
she thought of going home. It wasn’t a very hard task to go home, she thought. She kind of was already home, she thought. She was on top of the roof of her home, she thought. She sat inte the sofa and she thought; take your clothes on, take your bag, take your keys, where were the keys? The phone rang, she thought. She took her keys, she threw them on the floor. Wrong order, she thought. She took her clothes up from the floor, she put them on, success, first task done, she thought.   She sat on the topp of the roof like on the prow of a ship, a woman on the street screamed up at her, she screamed up at her, she went down, she thought. Not falling, she just took the stairs, so it was fine, she thought.   The home was covered in dust, she was covered in dust, she tried to clean it of but the water was covered in dust. She wanted to float over the floor as if on one of those stupid hover-boards in the perfect middle of the room, there in the middle there were no dust, she thought. She lost her hand, it was her left hand, she was left handed, she found her keys, they were on the floor. She took a pen with the hand she had left and wrote, to- do underlined it and continued; walk to bag, take bag, open door and go down all the stairs, go home, she thought. She sat up and she stood up, she found her hand, it was on the roof, the wind stole it, now she had two hands, she thought.   She walked to her bag, she took her bag and realized she had forgotten to write go to door, how can you open door if you’re aren’t by the door? She laid down, fell asleep on the hallway floor, in her dream she just walked out, down the stairs,  said hello to the nice old man sitting in the beach-chair outside and then she just took the train home, or you know, where she lived  now. She once had happened to call it her home when talking to her dad on the phone and he got so happy she could hear him crying on the other-side of the line so now she calls the new place where she lives her home. It isn’t though, she thought. She woke up, she stood in the shower she screamed she tried to rip her heart out, she had to rip herself out of this apartment. She went out on the balcony, she slept on the balcony, she screamed on the balcony, she thought on the balcony. Thought about what happens when your brain drops when the grief becomes to heavy and the brain can’t say stop. Can’t say no, sorry. can we delay this very important grief-meeting, what about next week ? She stood up, she thought. She looked down the balcony, she saw people, people going to their jobs, taking their children to school, people jogging maybe for the first time ever or training for their fifteenth marathon. She thought. She saw her old neighbor sitting in his chair outside. She thought. She saw the sun come up, because it happens, she knew.

falling closer
Hej jag heter Kalle, jag är 17 vårar och jag är trött på att tårar faller ner från min kind. Det hände senast i torsdags morgon i klassrummet när nina skapat ett instagram konto som hette kalle balle kalle balle är ful. Jag tyckte det var töntigt för vi är sjutton år, men alla andra skrattade så vad ska man göra då ? Läraren sa inget fast han allting såg han bara twittra på om något som jag ej kommer ihåg. Även om dem flesta mobiler är på surr så hör jag allt twitter som pågår i detta *** och jag vet att det mesta inte är om mig och jag vet att man inte borde bry sig men jag bryr mig. och det känns så motsägelsefull för jag har alltid hört att det är någonting fint i att bry sig att bry sig, men nu när jag är större är det som att världen har växt med mig och nu finns det för mycket att bry sig, att bry sig om. Hej jag heter Kalle och jag mår inte bra, jag får notiser om att det är så ungdomar ska ha det. Jag sitter i min plats längst bak i klassrummet till vänster, när jag plötsligt ser en bild, jag tror jag ser ett mönster. här uppifrån som utanför vårt fönster. för vi är ett *** fullt av instängda fåglar, det finns svanar som alla anar kommer växa och bli kända som alla vill vara det finns kråkor som är stolta över att ta andras lycka/ det andra har , och det finns hackspettar och duvor gökar ugglor, och jag och jag är rädd att jag är en pingvin eller en struts jag vet inte om ni vet men av alla 10000 fåglar är just dem de ända som inte kan flyga och jag tror jag är en pingvin men kanske är det bra för jag är jag.

oceans of water
everything I do hurts you, my happiness stresses you out my energi smother yours, highlights your loss of it the same way the kind gestures show me your weariness I am well and you aren't   I would take it all in a nano second but I can’t I’ve tried but I can’t I play tired and I play sick I’ve tried to show that we’re the same but i know   it doesn’t make you less sick not a single bit all I can do is to grow and try to hold your hand even if you’re left behind and all this, all this until death will tear us apart. I can feel the normality sending a friend request to death I can feel time accepting it I start to recognize the blended soft colors and the feeling of life coming and going just hoping it isn’t in my hand. I am turning into someone else I say I’m happy because I know it matters We have one thing in common here we don’t complain because the nurses teach us that’s what kills us in the end I try to stand up outside all of it I try to feel like anything else matters but it doesn’t I’m scared my happiness somewhere else takes away the happiness we have until death tears us apart I take the buss back home I leave you behind I fake my way up to sit at the top so that I can see I have a photo of you on my phone to remember just in case you would go away It’s a new feeling a mix between everything and nothing I write it down because I can’t loose these seconds just in case you would go away It makes life feel so important It makes everything else feel stupid. It makes you stronger It makes everything heavy and all you can is hope, hope that it’s not until death tears us apart There’s a pregnant woman who wants my seat I let her have it I go all the way back I pass one with a burn mark on his face I wonder how many tears have happened the last ten minutes on this buss I wonder how they take it I don’t know how I take it I know the barr is lower here the scary part isn’t getting sick here it’s dying and in that case I know I’m the lucky one   Until death happens to me and I feel happiness knowing I’m the lucky one   I can be light flying over a bridge while everybody else takes the buss until your death will tear me apart.
