Another week, another white man kills a random group of people.
My father in law is known for saying “it’s not the bullet with your name on it that you have to worry about, it’s the one marked “To who it may concern.”
We are losing our people to white terrorists.
Join me in a winding podcast filled with poems and thoughts about privilege, being an ally, and empathy.
you listened to me
and when my body’s tale changed
you tried something new
saying they were just
words put on symptoms for the
insurance company
and not the be all
end all final sentence of
my one existence.
you treated my whole
not just the sum of my parts
saying it’s an art
not only a science.
when we fail to find a fix
we should always ask
are we looking right
where we should be or do we
need to start anew?
I’ve never met a
single other doctor quite
as lovely as you.
