haven't wrote a poem in a while. it's because a few night ago... I cried so hard my throat sung those old slave songs cause lately I guess i've been a slave to perfection, a slave to the image, unable to smile if not requested, unable to escape. tried to listen to those revolutionaries on twitter like fredrick douglas and such. only made me fear the freedom that might not ever be.
i'm black so don't hope on me for talking about slavery. also prob one of my fave poems I've written.
