Flash


















I want what I want.
My desire is my own.

No one can make me not want
what I want,
No one can make me
want what I don’t.

A simple truth,
a spinning shape,
flashing peach-toned light
through my center
outwards
What does it mean?
Joy and power

I want what I want:
it is not moderated,
not bargained down
or capitulated,
with no apology,
no wrong, no shame,
clear as my conscience,
strong as my name.
