No one beats me like you did before, I still belong to the floor
I’m alone, just the hum of the AC, the fan sleeps beside me in the heat, next to the bed where you used to be
The Mikvah
God allowed me to dive in a Greek, but I didn’t let the Greek dive in me, so to speak
I Killed a Bird in Flight
Silence cuts with empty sorrow. Better nothing, than a future filled with fear of tomorrow
I’ve Destroyed Myself
I’m irritable, like a buzzing mosquito
I’m fierce, like a dragonfly in flight, you know
I Tumbled Down the Stairs
I tumbled down the stairs, my steps weak and unsteady
Polin, tenth of July, and the heat is so heavy
In Constant Fear, Blessing Relative Safety
Wrapped in worry, not scarves with stars in place, we remind ourselves, Our Home's still at war
A Lighter Fast
I wink at the mirror, whisper meafar bati and pride swells again as deals close, all it with that ease
