To adjust, to adapt, to accept, to reconcile ~
bouncing back ; the disagreeable task
I grasp the subjective and my idiosyncrasies
What is the nexus? What is the impetus ?
The lesson of strength after the burden of struggle
To bury the hatchet beneath my wounds bombed to rubble
Is it grit?
Obstacles as Challenges
Rather Than Hindrance
The oak fought the wind
and was broken,
the willow bent
when it must and survived.
We Change the narrative when we decide
to build beliefs with autonomy
thoughts on the system
that oppressed my mother,
Envelopes of food stamps one year after the other.
Nourishment by means of oppression
The menu corroborates the resilience expression.
To improve, to build, to foster, to test
Turning the corner, a word to the wise
I revise the objective and past normalcies
By virtue of what, by means of..
The lesson of tolerance after the venom of snakes
The house of stagnation where detractors jest in grace
Is it grit ?
Obstacles as Challenges
Rather Than Hindrance
My words . Her flesh .
What is resilience without the outcome of progress?
The lesson of growth after the occurrence of struggle
To bury the hatchet beneath wounds bombed to rubble
The lesson of tolerance after the venom of snakes
To leave detractors in merriment’s grace
My words . Her Flesh. My Words

This mutating virus shape shifts
in order to exist ;
When explicit expression becomes taboo,
it hides in coded language
Microassaults
Microinsults
Microinvalidation
Remember the reflection
in your weaponized denial
Discernibility;
The glass house where you exist
is the colour of privilege and fragility.
It scans as invisible
the most corrosive force,
An ectoplasm feeding off itself
Microassaults
Microinsults
Microinvalidation
The ascription of intelligence
The myths of meritocracy
The statements that indicate
One’s privilege does not see race
Microassaults
Microinsults
Microinvalidation

QUEER GOETIAS

(Translated from Portuguese)
Thirteen days ago
I watched you
Descend into the earth
A wooden carriage with satin lining
takes you to the underworld.
We saw the trees and their arms
Like our arms give you soft shade
As the sun burns what I knew of friendship.
That left this world with you.
I won't rest until they know your story.
I won't stop speaking your name.
On the day you were born after your death
I screamed your name into the sky
You couldn’t speak
But your tears of rain hugged me and my thoughts of endings
I won't’ stop speaking your name
And telling your story
The stages of grief
The sacredness in mourning
The power a bond has
Leaves behind
The vital desire to live.

FORTALEZA DE SÃO MIGUEL

(Translated from Portuguese)
In the new land
of oil and diamonds
And puppet rulers,
In front of the high city,
a structure was built
to protect from grievance and attacks
Under Rainha Nzinga
we are the people of the stone star
The power of the stones
was used against us
to be shipped be like cargo
to their new world
To the new cities that would be named
After the hills bombed
After the family trees mutilated
Left behind was rubble work edification with a polygonal form
In the new land of oil and diamonds
and puppet rulers,
in front of the high city,
a structure was built
to protect from grievance and attacks
Under Rainha Nzinga
we are the people of the stone star
This is the beginning of the tale that was the Armed Struggle of National Liberation
