2018 Was The Year of Resilience
As you find yourself reflecting on 2018, I challenge you to see the bad times in a new light.

Who decided natural meant white?
White people did.
First, I want survivors to know they’re not alone in their fear. I want them to know it’s okay to be a mess if you need to. The right one will understand. I also want them to know I am proud of them for facing their fears.
Pain is meant to be shared, just as joy is. We could not survive as humans if we had to do it all on our own.
I pray for the fall.
No matter who catches.
The point is that I jumped.
A poet asked if I had an eating disorder once
My mouth formed a NO
Before my tongue could remember
How do I explain food is safety and poison all at once?
I was furious with the world
With my world that teaches you
Getting me drunk is foreplay
My world that says
Not being able to consent
Is a drunken mistake
When you touch me
I feel sacred
This temple opens
Welcomes in the holy
