kindness

 God

You love

My eccentricity

Where I 

Gravitate

Towards

Nicks and Taylor

No bubblegum pop

Where I keep

Loving those

Who don’t return

The favor

So easy

To hate

What we don’t like

Myself included

Have to let

You rid me

Of my biases 

MLK Jr

Said hate

Was too big

A burden to bear

When will

We learn

You know

My dreams

But right now

You want my soul

Before the world

Crushes it

Glory 

Records

To be remembered 

And yet

Everything 

With time

Is eclipsed

Broken

Waiting

To be conquered 

Cerebral Palsy

Forces me

To live

In reality

One that 

Isn’t pretty

Or forgiving

Yet acceptance

Of the 

Immense privilege 

I have

That you provide

Kindness

In unexpected ways
