my ancestors have told me
i’m of travellers known as cree
i have yet to come to process
how this knowledge changes me
but what i do know is this:
i am
a neurodivergent being
making magic with mundane
a heart that still keeps beating
peeling poetry from pain
demon slaying through the night
holding hearts with art by day
wonder warrior unwavering
blessed to be here bleeding brave
forever fierce in loving
paused + present in this play
here to heal + make amends
with all the parts that have betrayed
