#repost • dawnfcallahan I understand the cycle of life—born to die, and all of that. But #NikkiGiovanni’s spirit… you secretly hope she’d be the exception, the miracle. Rest well, Sis. You served us beautifully and left an indelible mark on us all. 🙏🏽♥️ I WROTE A GOOD OMELET I wrote a good omelet... and ate a hot poem... after loving you Buttoned my car... and drove my coat home... in the rain... after loving you I goed on red... and stopped on green... floating somewhere in between... being here and being there... after loving you I rolled my bed... turned down my hair... slightly confused but... I don’t care... Laid out my teeth... and gargled my gown... then I stood ...and laid me down... To sleep... after loving you
