let’s face it



i took counsel
the student was ready…

“let’s face it”, he said
“don’t be confused
just because you hate it
doesn’t mean some
mean naai isn’t
out to skop you hard
in your poes, for a joke.
learn to make a fist
with your open heart…”

he didn’t mince his words
and the teaching was taken
as such

ever since i’ve found
hands and hearts as
two sides of the same coin
that when i turn the mint
to flip slowly over
that in the in-betweens
where both disappear
there is a mirror
where i see myself

my open hand
positioned to heal
a hurting part
