We’d sew your spine into the family quilt,
but first - unclench that jaw.
The drum in your ribs is still our rhythm.
You inherited the soil, not the wound.
Stop apologizing for the light.
Now - dance into your name.

the line about inheriting the soil not the wound hit me hard. my grandma used to say something similar when i'd get all tangled up in family stuff i didn't even live through. wild how that drumbeat still connects us though. do you perform this at any of the open mics in nairobi? 10 days ago
