My poem is now live on Ink Sweat & Tears!
I am so excited to have my poem published on this site, and be able to finally share it.
This poem is very personal to me and is one of what I would consider my best. It revolves around abuse I experienced as a child and how it, and the way others treated me because of it, shaped my perception of myself for a long time. I hope you will read and appreciate the work!
I’ve been so lost and desperate for help since my dad passed from covid. I want to be able to give him a proper burial because he gave so much to me and my sister. If anyone is willing to donate or share, that would mean the world to us. I just don’t know what else to do. Thank you.

if your disability activism doesn’t support belligerent disabled people, disabled people who refuse meds or therapy, disabled people who don’t trust the system that’s fucked them over too many times to count—if your disability activisim depends on disabled people being nice or respectable or willing to be made into inspiration porn—it is not good disability activism.
