lyrical,
not in the way you speak,
but in the story
of why you speak so
ii.
a sense of judgment,
but not enough
to get in the way
of happiness
iii.
an appreciation
for the underclass,
the gritty emotive truth
iv.
vigor
for causes
fettered by apathy
v.
bravery,
willingness to listen
to hatred,
in the form of a
hardcore-tinged bass riff
vi.
tolerance-
for those who’d
rather not be
choking on clothes hangers
anymore,
stuck behind closet doors
vii.
patience
for what i do
and for my confusion
about why i do it
viii.
the ability
to keep a secret
