Got a whole lot of soul
Just enough space to hold all the galaxies inside of myself that I can't even name
It is derived from a Latin word which means to cut and though I know my mother's colonized tongue is partially responsible
For this unfortunate mishap, I like to imagine that
24 years ago an angel appeared to her in a dream and said
Woman unto you a child is born and her tongue will be made of steel and her words will cut like a blade
Mama, I hope I live up to my name

#depression poem
There are nights when I am wild vine warnings
When I am summer garden in days when I am plump sky belly filled an aching loud thunder and rain
Stormy weather but calls me on the occasion of a drought

If only you would trust me
There is no shame in your mistakes, you're just learning to remember your name is Taylor
so when you stand

#straight
Hold just fine straight as a razor's edge carve and arch in your back and walk the way your mama
taught you to remember you are holding galaxies inside of you so when you stride
Balance the orbit of your hips like the world is depending on you young woman rise
The world is depending on you Oh
