In Memory of Those Who Chose the Other Sea – Tramaine Suubi
lake nalubaale buoys me as i stage
a revolt against you for daring to baptize
my obsidian skin in sin, to soak my largest organ
in your guilt, i say no more

that she gave birth to a hurricane
part shapeshifter & part indigo child
at any given moment
i am bending the rain, faithfully
