Friday Night Poetry Slam

Theme: Ambidextrous

  • a theme is just a suggestion

I have always been tall. As an embryo, red blood cells scurried under my feet.

I have always been small. The colossal planets cannot even perceive how petite.

I have always been awake. I lucidly jump off rooftops and fly in my dreams.

I have always been asleep. Cheaply selling my labor to another man's schemes.

I have always been charitable. I only take from those who have something to give.

I have always been selfish. I am the only one who can choose how I live.

I have always been alive. Before I was born I was destined to be.

I have always been dead. Yesterday is gone and he is no longer me.
