Self Tevin C R Dube

if i had my way
quite frankly
i would never choose to be
born in this particular flesh

why would any conscientious being
chose to be born
in a vessel detested?

suffering as i imagined myself
with a different face
with preferably a lighter complexion
savoury towards society's bitter taste buds

-overcoming self-hate
-finding self
-mastering self
-becoming self
