    Excerpt of *Dreams i don't remember the end of*

    "the one where home is home is home
     the one where we choose when removal comes
     the one with allowance for a morning routine
     the one where we walk and walk
     & that is the destination
     the one where we aren’t asked if we belong"

    Excerpt of *Her brother told her she was from Mars*

    "in the make her cry and shout it wasn't me before first tear reaches chin way
     in the way her skin was a conduit for everything unwanted being let in
     in the way she always loves expecting to lose something 
     and in the way that broken things are easier to hold"
