My Thoughts Are My Own

I know you will come to find me here,
in this place that I hold sacred.
It's ok though.

Know this: there's been integration,
and it has shifted me.
I am filled with compassion for all of it.

Chicago has been a blessing;
emotional and spiritual digestion
have altered every cell.

I'll continue to pour
my verses and prose,
knowing you'll see what you want.

Don't let it confuse you.
These stories are about me,
they're about my consecration.

In this place... my thoughts are my own.
