gods and mothers and daughters
my mother’s divinity stains my fingers, my mouth all bloodened by her devouring faith.
she tells me if i fast if i keep my soul pure, god will forgive me for sinning/loving a woman/not wanting to marry a man of my faith. she tells me another priest in the village saw god and i bite my mouth so i won’t bite god in the wrist, i keep my mouth closed so god doesn’t get to leave the rotting stench of my rage, i kill myself so i don’t bring his wrath upon my devout mom.
when you ask me if believe in a god, i will lie between my teeth (as my grandmother through hers when she told my mother god will be good if you pray and god will punish if you don’t) and say “no” but we both know i can’t blame a god i don’t believe in, i can’t pray for his forgiveness if i don’t wish to forgive him.
My girlhood was defined by being an image of a goddess, they told all little girls “tum devi ka roop ho” (you are a face of the goddess) and all newly married women “laxmi ji ghar aayi hain” (goddess of wealth and prosperity has entered our house) but no one saw me that way, no one sees us that way. They call us a goddess and tell us to marry into households where an ordinary man would beat up his “goddess” wife. They call us a goddess and expect us to sit cross legged on the bed and tell our surviving daughters that god will be good if you pray and god will punish if you don’t and no one questions god for punishing the murdered girl fetuses for not praying when they weren’t even given a chance to learn to.
and yet i believe in all the inauspicious tales, i am afraid my mother’s prayers will stop protecting me any second, i am afraid the god will punish me for loving, i am afraid the god will ask for my kindness and i will hand him my life instead.
it becomes a cycle, mom. you will disappoint me like a god and i’ll claw at your approval like your devout, you will love me as a daughter and i will fear you as my god, you will continue chanting as i bleed (you have no choice, you can’t stop in between can you) and i will forgive you like a dog.

Growth is a continuous striving of heart and soul where one takes the pain and the other transcends it.

She told me to put it down, now the room is filled with fucking sounds, liquor in and she's tipsy, I know we're going a couple rounds, she sucked me until my legs went numb, then said "Fuck me now!", one hand pulling her hair as I beast fucked her doggystyle, massaging on her titty, she sucks her juices off my lips while she kissed me, that grip grip is intense, that's how I know she missed me. #enticing #intriguing #fantasizing #sexy #eroticpoetry #sexypoetry #lustpoetry #igpoetry #igpoetrycommunity #blackpoet #david #loveletters2theblackwoman Love Letters To The Black Woman available at davidsantino.com https://www.instagram.com/p/CTmpRZhnbi8/?utm_medium=tumblr

When I said Avalanche was in my book in bold letters I wasn't lying. It's the most prominent piece in there. It's probably my favourite poem of mine. Which is bizarre haha.

GENTE FELICE Chissà se diventeremo ridicoli o forse già lo siamo che gente felice non ha storia non è vero ora lo so ne ha di spettacolari e brillano anche di più accostate al dolore di ieri Resta piano senza fare rumore così non mi sveglierò mai e sarà come affogare disperatamente felici in questo mare calmo come chi non sa nuotare perché gente felice non ha storia e allora noi ne inventeremo una da raccontare L’Amore a volte lo fa farci diventare banali e sembriamo uno spot televisivo della vita ideale tutto quello che mi ha sempre fatto orrore Ma tu continua ad avere paura così ci sembrerà di camminare su un filo e avremmo l’illusione di doverci continuamente salvare questa felicità spaventosa che ci ha fatto tornare la paura di morire è benedetta come la condanna meravigliosa che fa continuare a battere il cuore ...E giurami che mai niente diventerà normale perché anche uscire a fare la spesa e aspettare le vacanze di natale faremo finta sia come guidare contromano perché in fondo in questo mondo è questo ormai che davvero sembra strano Gente felice non ha storie da raccontare è troppo impegnata a vivere ma noi lo faremo sottovoce.#karenlojelo #poetrylovers #loveyou #movimentoperlemancipazionedellapoesia #poesiadistrada #poesia #igwritersclub #scriveresempre #amoreinfinito #igpoetrycommunity #felicitá (presso Wonderland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFeLN8dnhSN/?igshid=1d7ilg291l3bu

The obsession to capture from the mind hijacks all senses and I'm falling short of feeling it and ultimately losing it
