THE FUTURE IS QUEER
(after Zora Neale Hurston & Danez Smith) kiki nicole
I feel most colored when I eat pussy. At my most good, I am a mess of thighs & pus. A broke, yet gentle machine. This is an exercise in existing. What a vacuum. What a dark thrill to be both blk & without elegy. This tender twerk. I wound the moon, speak of rivers & chicken wings, got the ground shook. In public, I misgender my own ripe body, offer up my jawbone as punishment or entropy. Every white person I've ever known reminds me of Donald Trump. Every white queer I've ever known his hands. Every cishet an empty throat. Every non-black POC an almost war. I am ready for the end because I never had a beginning to start with. Make America mine for once, trust me. I've fucked the apocalypse before, I know what to do with my hands.
