Is it brave to enter a river you can’t pronounce?
The water in my blood sings to its sisters
and somewhere else,
under a closed sky,
my shore.

Poem: Psst! Psst! Wake up!

Me: It's 3am, Poem. Go to sleep.

Poem: But what if I'm really good?

Me: You're not. You're an existential crisis.

Poem: Excuse me, I can be both. I contain multitudes, you know.
