La Pregunta
Someone once asked me,
" What do you want to be when you grow up?"
One meaningless occupation after another
floated just to the
surface of my lips
The question itself pointing fingers
and
ridiculing my life
thus far
I felt trapped
My heartbeat was off like a rocket to the base
of my throat and plunging
back down
and up
and
down
I'm stuttering. . Trying all the attractive
and "right" answers on
They feel tight, as if I am being fitted
for a suit that is just
one size too small
I shift without sound
open my notebook and
peer into the well of words
that let this boy breathe
To the asker I shrug..
Relying on dimples and
charm to satisfy the query
I close my eyes and step up to the Mic,
inhale freedom and say......
Me
