word jam : prisoner swap




to be honest 
i don't really know where i landed
it wasnt anything consistent

a prisoner swap 
is what they are proposing 
Negar Ghotskani 

she is going to die 
the pain is unbearable 
this is white torture 

in solitary 

why can't i find a picture of her

pay the effing debt 
you stubborn and ignorant 
bungling buffoons 

smoke signal is going up 
n the sound Om 

n every night 
i get shot and attacked by dogs 

I'm single, female and disabled 
i should just put up and shut up 

and old it seems 

is it normal to have these faults
or am i just making excuses for him ? 

i have no dignity 
I'm just a kidney 

so what am i some sort of curiosity then 
to be laughed at 
like some person in a Victorian asylum 

not the sort of guy 
that would normally produce flashing lights 

n I'm that sort of girl 


n then Starsey was born 
lets call this one Oblivion 

k so where did she jump from 
n what was the last place she went to 
before she landed
