Beyond

" 'The bird that would soar above the level plain of tradition and prejudice must have strong wings. It is a sad spectacle to see the weaklings bruised, exhausted, flutering back to earth.' " -The Awakening

Heave

my mouth tastes sour
when i press my tongue between my cheek + gum.
i crush the grit in my molars.
profanity forms a think paste between my pursed lips.

my tongue us swollen
my forehead condenses a fever.
my life is jeopardy
soon i must flex my muscles.

expand my wings,
feathered + tarred.
