boxes

We have no place that we can claim without contention We are constructing a whole new edifice of boxes to put people in To protect a space inside which you can exist Very concerned about giving names (giving names) Dissatisfaction seems like the natural byproduct of identification I truly believe that people who define you control you And the most significant thing that any person can do But especially black women and men Is to think about who gave them their definitions And rewrite those definitions for themselves --- boxes - Moses Sumney
