What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world?
We live in an interesting time, where even the poor have a pen
And the ink comes free as text
Giving the opportunity for those who never told their stories to do so
I mean, look at me,
Non-binary, disabled, poor
Three reasons I should not have a pen
Unique in its existence, this time
I was told to write my story before I died
Call it premonition, call it the cries of a sick brain
I didn’t die (Yay me?)
I’m still a little crazy all the time
But I don’t try to hide it here
If someone could find this place,
See the pain of chronic illness, living with disability, and living in poverty
Learn that poverty and disability are not a character reference
Maybe they can’t see past the gender fuckery and anti-capitalism
But I imagine my work being posthumously discovered
Being a trove of thousands that anyone can find something to relate to
A tale of human life, pain, joy, woes, loves
It’s kind of like a love song
A love song of life
