By Jem Morgenstern
The cement
has more personality than I do
because its history is vocalized
It's strong and present
the water stains
the cracks
the gum
Mine is internal
It's swallowed and drowning
in my stomach
the intestines
the cracks
the crevices
I hoard my words
as if they're more valuable
inside of me
than outside
to be eaten by the people
who are hungry
for my words
and my presence
