Bitter and Sweet

these last seasons

I have been 

healing because


finally I have allowed 

myself to stop 

trying to be 


other than I am 


which was murdering 

me in the space 

of my belonging


it is still hard

to wake up and 

press myself into

the gray box 

of the office 


to pour stimulants 

into my mouth 

and force myself 

to swallow


sweet and bitter

bitter and sweet


I am not fit

for this world


I am not fit 

for this world
