the ripple

To accept to be duped
To not grimace at the absolute
An offering in your teeth of no use
Any other life
Any other body
Any goddamn type of dignity

To accept to be viewed
To not let them hold that over you
To be groveling at their feet
Til they shoot

An existence that cuts
To be overseen and overloved

Give up on your personhood hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should
Give up on your personhood hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should

To be welcomed to my room
Sharing was so overdue
Weren't you all a final piece
To feel full
Not any other life
Not any other body
Not any goddamn type of dignity

To be accepted too soon
To let my judgment go underused
Got myself a brand new sheen
To be confused

An existence that cuts
To be overseen and overloved

Give up on your personhood hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should
Give up on your personhood hope it sends a ripple
Give more than you ever should
