my greatest dancing aspiration is to have black people compliment my dancing. that’s honestly my main goal every time i dance. not to have fun, not to seduce anyone, not to reach enlightenment, but to have black men dance around me and say YOU GOT IT GIRL when i walk it out. because i do have it. and i do know how to fucking walk it out. the thing about walking it out is that once you get in...

awesome poems
I wrote this when I was 13. Ha. I still remember that feeling. I had been grounded for getting 4 B’s on my report card (Mom! Come on!) and apparently was framing a little personal manifesto. I guess I don’t still get that excited when people compliment my hair, but most of it still applies..

tonight
my sister told me she has never seen snow fall before.
How could this be? When did I do all of this living without her?
On our walk home from the train we decided to stomp through McCarren Park, taking pictures of each other in our matching rainboots, the ones our mom bought us the last time she was in town— in the summer, in the rain. I asked Lauren when she saw snow on the ground, if...
