Self survival

Like a mammal out of water we gasp Like I thirsty man struggling to open his flask We crave to imbibe as we strive to survive While frantically struggling with life Flapping around and panicking Scared we are running out of time Hoping someone may save us But the only one who can save our…

Various shades of skin

Are you your sex? Or are you your spirit? Does it even matter How other people perceive you? Surely being authentic In a world that’s so fake Is more important In this day and age. Why justify your being Your very existence Are you seeking attention? Is this what this is? Who cares about your…
