calm down, please

“Calm down, please.”

This is my one crack at living. 

How in God’s Holy name do you expect me to calm down? 

I could die tomorrow. Today even. And who would I have been? Calm!?

Calamity indeed. 

In Deed and Truth I will be myself. 

Finned and Winged

Wild and Weird

suck it in

sucking wind

fuck all that

I am stardust. And so are you, by the way. 

And nothing in the universe is getting smaller. 

Including me. 

Especially me. 

I’m gonna expand. 

Cellular division within me. 

DNA of generations jangling around in my blood. 

Multiplicity

Creativity

Simultaneity 

Spontaneity 

Cacophony 

Deity 

Crowned. Enthroned. 

women scorned are fury

mothers of mankind are mercy

count yourselves lucky we love inspite of brutality

the least you could do is let us be angry
