A poem about little Bart moments

I wonder if there is a person in Tokyo  as squished as me right now
Writing poems about his Neighboor passenger
She is writing a text to someone who’s name starts with an L
She wants to know if they will go to a queer dance party 
He looks over a second later and sees that she is listening to Regina Spector
I tried to run and catch a train today but it wasn’t my legs that failed me 
Ten minutes late and crowded as a neandtathals armpit
And just as sweaty 
It feels almost like the concert last night 
Perspiring bodies smushed together like sardines
Except everyone is playing their own music 
No one is passing dab pens around 
And we all just want to leave 
Yet the looking game is played 
1,2,3...and he looks away 
Why was he staring in the first place 
But the Bart cars have windows that always make people look better in the sunset 
So I guess there is always that 
Can’t say I have helped 
I had to pee so bad the other day I squat down at the muni platform 
A little hidden 
And there was even a bathroom right next to me 
It was fenced off and labeled ladies so I guess I truly had no place to pee
And people still wonder why stations smell bad?

Nine months later I emerge with the hopes of being vaccinated soon. FUcking hell. What a trip. This pandemic is going to require a lot of processing in the future but for now, I want to share and record some things I am very proud that I accomplished over this period of time. I was able to help start and run a campaign to eventually get my high school drama teacher who spread the rumor that I called the cops at a cast party which ruined my social life at that school while stalking me and my friends and constantly trying to get me in compromising and damn disgusting and gross situations. His charm to his superiors and the gaslighting and abuse of students has been heavily weighing on me in a way I have yet to fully deal with. I spoke out in high school and was silenced, threatened, and made to feel unwelcome. Yet the internet and living in a whole separate continent does wonders for confidence. I helped create a petition, gathered testimonies, and launched this campaign with my friends

Rainy Night Writing

There is something quite different about writing when it is raining outside than when it isn't. I despise my frozen toes and fingers, yet I love drinking chocolate almond milk with banana bread. It seems almost enchanting, like creativity is plopping on your rooftop. Writing in the rain, so odd. Writing in the rain It is like laughing during a thunder cloud, in perfect harmony with nature, rhyming and paralleling the weather, writing in the rain, creativity pours from you, as you hear the pitter patter, you wonder where the drops will all go, writing in the rain, a clean slate to begin again, a downpour of ideas, soon to come again, I love writing in the rain.
