Diversity
Being a city boy
with Native roots,
I have always loved the feel
of cool, dew-laden grass
licking my toes;
the scent of pine needles
on the forest floor;
the way a blue butterfly
will sometimes land

”Your words feel like a cold wind. In my world, it rains when I’m sad, and I can feel the ‘inhumanity’ you’re talking about. If your world is burning, maybe my storm can help put out the flames. We’re both just trying to find some warmth in the dark.”

Very good…. I love this part the way a blue butterfly
will sometimes land
on your outstretched hand.
