The Latest

The bees are my secrets:
they sting during the day,

You are the pain of
a new tattoo
you make me
writhe and shake
for your beauty
and by now I should
have a tolerance
but each dance
feels new.

And it is here that I realize
while reading Resistencia
that the source of all my rage is
fear
for this dying planet
fear that we will not spark
revolution before my
dying breath.
