Shove it down your throat.
shove all this shit
shove it down your white ass throat
shove all this down
I came by
you weren't there
I'm so mad
my phone messed up
I'll be there
This time, I'll be there
over and over
I'll say it again
shove it down your throat.
2.
Okay
but you
you do it.
shove it down.
you do it.
and I
I won't budge
shove it down
I'll stay still.
shove it down my white ass throat
I won't budge.
3.
I know
we came from different worlds
I know
I don't know you
at all, at all.
You don't owe me
anything.
but I am
falling
from your words-
shove it down your throat-
I am falling, still.
I think because
I know
that I am failing through this falling
I am failing me and you.
Please,
Please,
simply take my apology.
I am sorry.
I am sorry to
fail you.
I did try and
I am trying still.
You are always welcome here
you are always welcome here
with me.
My inspiration
ReplyDeleteGolden girl with golden dreams
plants her feet in the shifting sand and
holds fast ‘gainst tides of resentment and defeat
Refusing to give up, refusing to give in.
Give no apologies for who you are
and all the roads you’ve walked – they made you who you are
and strong;
your purpose, sure.
To find the gate and hold it wide
and chart a course through shifting sand for those who might be lost
in seas of resentment and defeat.
From the letter of Paul to the Philippians, 4:4-9 :
ReplyDeleteRejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
Whether or not one believes . . .
