152

I’m paying attention to the faces in vases

And in lamp shades and in speaker cages

I’m noticing tiny smiles in the cracked paint

On walls

I’m staring and I’m becoming the rhythm of the ceiling fan

I have two avocados and a mango

Some water and cheap wine in my fridge

48 dollars in Chase

I’m poor and I’m smiling anyway

I get lost a lot

Walking out of my house requires a compass

But I’m finding myself in roundabouts and u turns

Life is sweet

-Yaya
