born in 2002

a sleazy girls' fanzine, fantasy writing on an art star
and the doppelgangers Big Dawg kid,
but the way it encourages
people to smile insanely,
to disport themselves as if they,
too, were for sale

a man at 7,
with unthinkable knowledge,
he was to young to process
the information on his plate

physically, the man, he’s a fraction of what was,
a crippled arm, a hobbled leg,
aphasia, dynamic dyslexia, are apparent,
unable to produce speech with ease,
a pending amputation,
which is heavy on his mind,
in constant pain, 24/7/365,
he so fuckin use to it,
brutal man , broken families,
father in prison,
living alone,
outside the law,
fierce insight into everything,
fight at every turn, whack

at 6, now, i’m fearless, fierce, able,
the man, is terrified,
at 6, creativity is always with me,
it’s my old friend,
the man, is weak, tired, exhausted,
at 6, I’m flirtatious, lusty, kinky,
the man is bitter,
at 6, I’m curious, mischievous, whimsical

the lure to make a transformation,
the temptation and seduction to construct a better me,
cannot be quieted or be put down
