Mind over matter
My mind & heart *Enters into the gloom Breaking through the walls Into the woods of doom Only to find a new moon! How to tell it to me, It will be invisible For sometime long Along the way Where I belong!. Better seek out Something which is More near & dear Real without fear. Wait if you must Don't rush to the dust Listen to your intuition to bring back your Laughable soul Which would eventually* Make yourself whole!

Redemption
When she speaks, her words become bubbles in the wind; hollow, weightless. @qyflorentino

Witless.
Hearing you moan about the baby weight While warming up the Cow and Gate Droopy tum and ***** ****** dry And how they leak at every cry Your body will never be the same Ever since the baby came Constantly exhausted beyond all belief When they finally sleep through, dear God, the relief Training and tantrums, toddlers are trying You learn to accept they never stop crying Oh to be one of those wretched souls! Sterilising bottles and benches and bowls Gaining those precious protective pounds Awakening to those unmistakable sounds Washing and folding and wiping and feeding All the work that comes with breeding And now the sun sets on that part of my life Never a mother, only a wife For all those hopes that didn't make it Bun in the oven but unable to bake it Trying not to envy and regret and hate But I just can't shift the baby wait...

Baby Wait
Why do people try to define with putting us in boxes? On the surface I'm a white girl, who works hard, does community service, & who doesn't take **** from no one, who is always nice, as long as you are, strong & happy. But, in reality, I'm Spanish, Mexican, Native American & African American. I have dyslexia, A.D.H.D., A speech impediment, Depression, Anxiety, insomnia, & that's all because of my Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. So I MUST work hard! If I don't, I will crash & burn. So I keep myself busy & I NEVER stop! Can't let anyone get me down, cause on the inside, I'm crying. So, I hide it with a smile. I keep strong to be happy, But that doesn't mean it will work. Cause just cause I'm nice to others, doesn't mean they'll be nice to me. So tell me, what box am I in? Cause I don't think I have one. And what box are you in? Cause I don't think you have one either.

[Boxes] A Slam Poem
The world is not petite, The world is not a whole lot. The world is I, The world is you. We beneath the blue appear like an ocean, We flanking the blue appear like a sky. For us, clouds in the ocean Waves on the sky.
