lotto

let’s enlighten

watch this bottle catch some lightening

you win the lotto, when i’m writing

when i invite in, my head & heart’ll, fight & make up

the only logical cause to smear your make up

so here, i’ll take up, your moments

an exit going, potentially where your legs are going

or at least your pulse, your gulps

& often elusive dreams and hopes

convene then careen into miracles

effortlessly lyrical, to drive you hysterical

by changing the narrative

when living comparatively, like oh boy here he go

foreshadowing dinner convo, when marrying me

you’re only in a thong though

in my arms though, there’s no other way to carry a queen

clearly you’re stronger

i’m only appearing to be

kneeling like a curtsy, at your mercy

peering at you thirsty

wearing your ring; or mirror things

you heard when conversing, with your patriarch

nursing on your matriarch

if you pinch me, just don’t wake me up

make me a, drink, & sit with me

roll us a L, we’ll get lifted

regifting, the shift when mercury’s retrograding    

like Nina sanging

don’t let me be misunderstood, when i’m explaining

that we’re good, ever since you came in

& understood, my palms, they’re famous

in my arms, your aim is, full of amens

hallelujahs, asa lama lakums

as i ask my mama to wake up

to thank her, for being my anchor
