Road Trip Day One
My car keeps track of miles traveled. But I am not a machine. I track my progress by counting vultures. Vultures. Scavenging on death. Celebrating every armadillo crushed under eighteen wheels.

I am FREE! Free to ride my bike With no shirt on And blind passing drivers With my mirror white skin. Free to deafen pedestrians With the biggest blackest voice My lungs can muster - Your love keeps lifting me higher - A freedom I didn’t have to fight for Because I am free to be at peace A freedom that is my birth rite as an individual.

Stop Searching
If you search for me I won’t be found. I’m sorry I can’t help you right now. You’re on your own. Don’t worry You can swim. I’m fighting demons. Wrestling. Earning scars.

I love the way you touch me. Twining my fingers around yours Is climbing a tree Is my favorite past time. In a all these branches You’re the roots.
