@yeseniamontilla & #CherylBoyceTaylor — two women poets that saw me & claimed me as their own. #matriach

“My father is my forever child.” — #CherylBoyceTaylor

“Is it justice or revenge we are seeking?
What does justice look like?
What else can I do to feel safe?
Several times a day I stab my fingertips to threads
Looking for something more than blood as a reminder of life” — #CherylBoyceTaylor @POETSorg

“There is so much left to do” — #cherylboycetaylor
