your heart is my art

-
You know
you know
you a trip!
Hanging with you is visiting
the unfamiliar
not knowing where I’m going
not raising any expectations
and I don’t carry any baggage.
Each visit or ‘art play’ I rack up
air miles, nothing but smiles
as my CV grows
artistically and otherwise.
Don’t take offense but what we
are doing is bartering
each other’s skills to enhance our own.
You know my creative button is always on
you asking me to thread my words to your
installation pieces is nothing but a good reason
to write, so I write you Mistress
write the things that flow
to my head, those moments I feel in my heart.
Your heart, your heart
your heart is my art.
Don’t cry me a fucken river with that mental block shit
I only allow that to happen to my cock
I’d rather walk around all blue-balls
then black ball my art.
Your heart, your heart
your heart is my art.
The chemistry is there, careful with the sparks
our shit is toxic, not like bad
but sick…like when you get off a rollercoaster ride
or the way I feel when you ask me to
I get off
right.
I get off this writing.

I recently learned to embrace the term
“Cause I deserve it”.
But still I, I , I trip
I’m a tripper, I’m tripping over myself
trying to write about shit.
“my creative button is always turned on”
making, faking, stirring shit up
and our collabos keep me outta trouble,
But you say to me “you’re funny”
which = I’m cute
I wonder what “You’re trouble” = to
I’m no trouble at all
really easy, I am
just want you to be pleased
with me Mistress.
I know I’m a shit talker, forgive me
but do know I’m not full of shit
I’m as real as real art can get.

I can’t forget that she asked if you were my girl
my subject… the magical creature I paint
in my narratives, a unicorn of a woman
who knows how to make me trust
trust in love.
I spread my “social graffiti”
on your psyche
my words seep inside your head
like a Mistress gets inside my head
she, the first and last thought of my day
Could I think about her
more than I pray?
No way, that’s just the wrongest
thing to say…
Does it matter?
I can have faith in another.

Frida Kahlo Poem Dedicated to Diego Rivera

(Translation by Claudia Rodriguez) In saliva on the paper in the eclipse. In all the lines in all the colors in all the jars in my chest outside, inside in the inkwell in the difficulties in writing in the wonderment of my eyes in the last moons of the sun (the sun doesn’t have any moons) in everything To say in everything is imbecile and magnificent. Diego in my urine- Diego in my mouth- in my heart, in my madness, in my dream, in the blotting paper- in the tip of the pen, in the pencils- in the landscapes- in the food- in metal- in my imagination. In my sickness- in the ruptures- in his lapels—in his eyes-in his mouth-in his lie. Kahlo, Frida. in “Frida el pincel de la angustia. Zamora, Martha. La Herradura, Mexico. 1987.

BLM Owes Me Nothing!

(R.I.P Vanessa Guillen) 1. I think that when you organize a social justice event; participate in a rally or a cause it’s because something about that issue moved you very deeply. You were drawn in even though the energy doesn’t completely mirror your experiences. It’s is still magical, transformative and impacting to fight for your beliefs and your values, to see so many people fight against injustices fills me with hope for humanity. I feel human again, am reminded that I am part of the human race. I’m embarrassed to say it, but I feel heroic, the way they always stand on the side of what’s right. 2. I never approach a social justice cause conditionally, do you? Is your political support conditional? Do you go..? Have you gone to a BLM rally and told yourself “alright I’m here, but these bitches better show up when my community puts on a rally!” Do you sign a petition advocating for LBGT rights and think “ok, but when my ass is getting discriminated against, y’all p

Married 05.25.2019 Ours is a good love a classic love settled, secure, durable like big brown sexy pillars of the gay community. Pillars that many wish they could twirl around- like some carefree stripper we   know you want this! We are a lusty kind of love. Loving ourselves is loving our community archiving its beauty in the poetry we speak and in the portraits we create. Line by line recording the shades and shadows in the lives of our brown gente magagandang tao. Because loving our community is loving ourselves. Our love is promising like the trunks that are your arms malakas promising comfort, security and love when they wrap around me. Our love is endless, like the many barriers, the challenges big and small that have threatened the world we ’ ve   built together...and we look back shine our big, bright beautiful smiles at all that we ’ ve overcome and feel comforted in knowing that our love is bui
