Full time black disabled student trying to survive my major with outside learning in poetry/fiction, puppetry, and stop motion.

I'm aiming for $100/month in support (books, travel, payment plans for classes). You can check out my monthly (sometimes more) newsletter to see what I'm up to and find alternative ways to support me all in my Ko-Fi bio!

[#RandomPoem 434]

While the world vomits war
And falls in the void entirely,
Spring is already sharing more
Cranes and storks with me.

Future tense, past tense, yes –
The grammar is but halfway set,
The storks are sleeping on their nests
They’ve not even got here yet.

Ukraine Armed Forces and the volunteer
Never sleep. And born in the basement —
In this new wartime era —
The child will receive new testaments.
