“There was always so much fire
I didn’t know back then that I was born
a sinner
I didn’t know back then that sometimes
instilling fear is sort of a love language.”

“I too, like you, avoid certain dates
On the calendar
Love songs are dirges now,
Like Erin’s Lament, aren’t they?
But our bodies ache for other things now,
For other people
I don’t know when this grief will
Finally catch up to me,
But for now, I hear chimes on every tree”

“Don’t blame yourself
Even when the lady sucked
On the confused bone between
Your legs
She came to you”

“I ask what “archives” means
He says old things that are kept
To be looked at again
The day Koko Mwasi passed
And I watched him cover his grief
Behind a pair of Ray-Bans
I wondered if this is ever gonna be
An archive
We will look at again.
Dad, stories like ours write themselves
Stories like ours cannot be archived”
