[Earned Age] a poem

[Earned Age]


Age, amongst those various, commonplace fears
discussed by the vain alive, is anticipated in the merely
life of mine.

Age is earned, too, it,
coupled with scars,
is the only needed representation,
bold & unquestioned,
that the way to survive to see another day
 has been accomplished
 to continue is to confront struggle,
offer a bloody, lingering and simple conflict;
one desires the take, the other desires the stay-



Dontrell Lovet't
from, [Just a Body]
