who i am right now (9/21/12)



i am a queer white person
i am a person
i am a person who was a straight girl
i am a person who feels like those categories are obsolete now
i am a person who feels with their stomach and their heart
really deep, feelings resonating in guts 
who feels energy and amplitude coming out in a hot torrent
who wants to know if everyone feels that way
who couldn't be prescriptive about what's in a body
who desperately wishes unity was 
who eases into heterogeneity
slowly, throbbing like a cut foot in the warm bath
seeing difference like your own hands
blurry under water
slowly, at first because opening

your eyes stings
