“I have survived too much to go quietly.
Let a meteor take me.
Call the thunder for back up.
My death will be grand.
The land will crack,
the sun will eat itself…

-the day I leave.” – Rupi Kuar.

I sway..

almost hijacked

inevitably overflowing with expression.

You stand there in complete awe

by the way I move.

It was never a secret.

You know that I live by the sun

and love by the moon…
