WIT TEA I am the lamb’s wool and the wolf crying beneath thin skin. Lick between my ribs. POETRY A seed that gave birth
After I Was Mistaken for the Stripper While Delivering Barbeque to an All-White Bachelorette Party
In Praise of my Threaded Eyebrows
to a legacy worth each bruised
palm from each time you lose
your grip
& fall to roots or feet,
bare feet.
