Acceptance of injustice is the heaviest thing you must let roll
roll down your authentic spine
past the dips and tips
into the earth
you must let it sink
rot and fester
Fertilize the fire
Acceptance of injustice is the heaviest thing you must let roll
roll down your authentic spine
past the dips and tips
into the earth
you must let it sink
rot and fester
Fertilize the fire
Treasure my heart, the way you caress your physical
Touch my soul with the grip from the tips of solidarity
Line my veins in echoes of gratitude
Done bleeding for scraps
Done pouring into people’s goodness just to get the steam of their ego
No more pretending I’m fine when my heart isn’t smiling
No longer shall I shelter in place because of comfort
Acceptance of injustice is the heaviest thing you must let roll roll down your authentic spine ...
