Poems
May 2014
the past
I try to make a fist but my hand is still being made inside the winter glove my nearby father lost.
I do not go after the boy whoβs called me a little ***** for wearing my motherβs Sunday heels.
I have one of those accidents I am never far from having.
I sit in the bath and wait for my brother who is tall enough to turn the showerhead away.
by my reaction, the water is either too cold or too hot.
