Lyrical Fire
I listen to Ani DiFranco
When I want to be inspired
She fills my tortured soul
With lyrical fire
I listen to Ani DiFranco
When I want to hear wisdom
Any given song
Is a musical politics lesson
I listen to Ani DiFranco
When I want to be inspired
She fills my poetic soul
With lyrical fire
some poetic words for my hero

Consent
I don't hate men
No, not at all
I am simply aware
Of what they are capable of
I don't hate men
That would not be fair
But neither is the act
Of *** without consent
i don't hate men

Always a Poet
When I was eleven
My teacher asked me a question
What do you want to be when you grow up ?
I said,
I want to be a poet
I want to create words out of nothing
I was already a poet
I did not realise
That I had always been
i have always been a poet

Begging
You begged me to stay
So I stayed
You begged me to change
So I changed
You begged me to smile
So I smiled
If I beg you to die
Will you die?
i beg you to stop begging me

Winners & Losers
I don't want to win
I want to live
In a world where winning doesn't matter
What is this competition
That I did not sign up for?
I don't want to win
I want to live
In a world where winning doesn't matter
this world has become a competition

Let me tell you a story
Of a poet who forget her words
To tell you that this was debilitating

Progress
I saw myself today
It was a startling sight
It takes bravery to look one in the eye
I've spent years rewiring a brain
Trained to believe it was ugly
So to see me as utterly beautiful
Was progress like I've never seen
it was a beautiful progression
#beauty
