see me through

your own smile

i am here.

see me through

your own smell

i am here.

see me through

your own eyes

i am here

i am here…

LOVE POEM [for Tupac]

1.

we smell the

wounds hear the

red vowels

from your tongue.

the old ones

say we don’t

die we are

just passing

through into

another space.

i say they

have tried to

cut out your

heart and eat

it slowly.

we stretch our

ears to hear

your blood young

warrior.

2.

where are your fathers?

i see your mothers gathering

around your wounds folding

your arms shutting your

eyes wrapping you in prayer.
