one person's criticism sends me to the moon
here's the deal.
i'm raising dragons
they scream and rumble and fly
off of furniture and into bodies
they demand and purr and
burn
i'm raising tigers
they nap and claw and snarl
over food and playthings
they lick with rough tongues
wetly
i'm raising hapa kids
who will have strength and wisdom to face
racist
sexist
assumptions of everyone around them with
resilience and humor
they will SNARL
they with RUMBLE
they will DEMAND
they will look into those boxes
you want to shove them in
and they will burn them.
they will say
NAH
which is what I say to you.
ectomorphing endomorphs burn paper for warmth in asylum beds while wondering where their mothers are no one to help you now the white walls scream not like there ever was
