Ten Percent

It's all in your tone.

How dare you tell me how I should feel!

How I should react during every situation only to fit your narrative,

of some shiftless, shucking and jiving, yes suh bullshit!

Fuck you!

And fuck how you speak to me!

You say we are all one in the same, yet your tone suggests that at best I am your pet.

You only seem to tolerate me when I pretend that everything is fine, because you are a weak pussy, who must hang on to this facade of positivity,

as you try so hard, too fucking hard, to be everyone's friend,

yet you damn well know it's but a distraction.

Where you have been long afraid to call your attention to the very same fires that have engulfed my heart, remaining blissfully ignorant to the same wildfires that persist inside of you!

But you insist on pretending,

that this world is all fucking sugar gums and rainbows! and how positivity will magically undo over 500 years of a genocidal legacy,

that persists proudly today off this fake ass narrative of colonization and exploration!

You have no idea! what it is like to wade idly in this temple that is my flesh, to carry such a perverse narrative that has been hitched violently onto my very DNA!

So next time you choose to speak, simply remember that there has always been and will always be a world that doesn't fucking revolve around you!
