one thing i’m gon do

is give you a mango, if i love you

*

why do i resonate with you

is it your truth to be my burden?

if you look closely at Moon, you will see her whispering to Sea.

An illumined whisper, not shaky and unstable like the flow of her counterpart.

call me,

before my voice grows defensive of the loose change in my pocket

this is my first face pic on here hello !

#me #hi #yk mutombo

a playing with language, a scrutinizing of the self - characteristics. what is it worth to say “i am strong” ? would you not rather to simply be ___, and to not be so surprised when it breaks a little?

of all poetry, this is my favourite kind to write - the kind that comes in three or four days and every few lines are revealed in due time. there is no direction, no “i want to say so and so, and formulate it as such” because i am not the one who speaks. i am not the one who speaks.
