I remember when my first big concert started
and 'we made it' started playing
i really felt like I made it
I made it out of fear, out of anxiety
of feeling I couldn't do it
and here i am today
achieving every dream ever dreamt
we definitely made it
boterea dago
hitzetan,
poemetan,
abestietan,
artean,
horregatik historian
erre dituzte liburuak,
erre dituzte hiriak,
altxatzen diren ahotsak
isilaraz ditzaten
it's always about perspective
the crescent moon from Earth
could also be
a crescent Earth from the moon
a beautiful parallel and paradox
proves we should venerate our planet
as we have done with our satellite in the past

only the lonely
stray and stay up to gaze up
at the moon’s ghastly glow. i
am a part of this cult. this hoard.
this marching band of poets
with words as sickly sweetened
music we offer to the wind.

encircling of the arms
almost sounds like a ritual
for my spirit gets lifted
when the full circle is completed
I don't know where I begin or end
and all the rest starts
but surely I'm gonna find out

the world does revolve around me
I have my own gravity pull
didn't you know?
my effect is negligible
but not quite
for those who get splashed
by my colours

I'm stealing this from a novel I read
please accept these mortal affections I'm offering:
if you don't believe in yourself
believe in me, who believes in you
& till the day I die
at least one person will be
believing in you
in this particular corner of the world
#kaytpoemprompts
today i didn't notice an old acquaintance behind the cash register
I saw her through the window
we made eye contact
but she bowed her head
she didn't look again
and I hesitate
is she her?
I wonder if I should've said hi
or let her remain
invisible to the eye
dena ondo doa behingoz
mesedez, arren, etzazu suntsitu
baina denok ondo dakigu
gailurra ez dagoela lautadaren erdian,
baina agian,
joan naiteke
hurrengo gailurrera
hegan
algoritmoak ez digu bate laguntzen
musika euskeraz ta gutxi batzuk entzuten
jendeak dio ez zaiola berdin iristen
ta geo hor dabil fundamentuzko ezer esaten ez duten abestiak jartzen
don't get me started
with the data bias in the world
designed for men when half of us are girls
even lab rats are exclusively male
they tell me
i never know when to stop complaining
i say
I'm making up for all the women who couldn't for years
#kaytpoemprompts
seeing fairy tales
when will mine come to life
i feel eyes brimming with tears
I feel it fill me inside
i want it to consume
my every being
