On some days
my father digusts me
on some days
my boyfriend isnt my boyfriend
and on some days…my brother wears a cape and leather boots with holes up the side
Most days I am a clown sporting green fingernails and toes
Envious
Kicking hotdogs down my asophegus and kissing white girls with fury.
I raise my hands to the Gods and pray for forgiveness
pray for streangth hope and the will to give
I wear my shortcomings on my sleeve
literally
and on my back and stomach.
Black man toting red bandanna glares at me with unchanging expression
Where are my articles?
When you are protecting your heart
align your elbows as closely as possible with the sides of your ribs.
Ball your fist
make your fingers hide inside the bodies of eachother
When you are protecting your heart, forgive all allys for the way they dissapoint you
for their shortcomings
Because you will need
all the help you can get.
When you are protecting your heart let not flappy flesh distract you nor barren parts
let the teeth of children be insoles in your shoes
let no man deter you from kissing a frozen forehead or praying to the leaves when you are protecting your heart.
An anonymous person from Virginia Beach, Virginia sold “10 Pack Trayvon Martin Targets” on the website GunBroker.com (the product has since been removed from the site). For $8, you could buy the item, whose description read as follows:
“Everyone knows the story of Zimmerman and Martin… Obviously we support Zimmerman and believe he is innocent and that he shot a thug. Each target is printed on thick, high quality poster paper with a matte finish! The dimensions are 12″x18″ ( The same as Darkotic Zombie Targets) This is a Ten Pack of Targets.”
The targets feature a faceless figure wearing a hoodie and carrying skittles, like Trayvon Martin was the night he was shot by George Zimmerman. The ten packs were so popular, they sold out within two days.
