“a bull in a china shop.”
this cavalier phrase
essentially describes
who i authentically
am – to the core
irritation, anxiety, and insecurities
reign thoughts of simultaneous trepidation
sprinkled with a dash of ease. we now reside
on a planet where all facades are obliged
to become a slight more transparent
individuals should not hide behind
the fear of the unknown
terror assists no one
pain assists no one
ignorance assists no one
love assists everyone
compassion assists everyone
patience assists everyone
i’m not demur,
and don’t pretend to be
for the sake of illumination
and onyx pitch
i am me
i am myself
&
i am i
Inspired By Anna Mazzotta, The Fish That Wanted to Be Madonna circa 1984
