- You can read the original poem with the many line breaks at the below link (please note that the initial title was sarcastic, I absolutely do NOT like games usually, unless they're super mutually understood...)
The poem is made up of two poems
The second poem begins with
"Hi sister! I miss you!
do you know
how long it
has been?"
Which is a great example of how much meaning I aimed for in the use of line breaks in this particular piece.

Thank you for your time and I hope you find this to be an illuminating and nurturing and transformative yet very interesting listening experience!!!!! I hope hearing it heals you the way it healed me to write, read, and record it.
The image is a picture of an original water color I did specifically for this poem, after having written it all. I hope the core truth of the poem shines through the watercolor as well, in its fragmented yet loving simplicity, and forlorn yet crucial vibes.
Thanks again for being here :) much love to you, dear human
P.S.
At the end of the piece, I added a thank you note to my aunties, especially my Auntie Judy and my Aunt Anne, as well as my dad's sister, my Aunt Eva. They have helped me more than I can ever possibly describe in words and I love them AND all of my other aunts, uncles, cousins, and family, more than I can muster the ability to fully express. My family and my extended family have helped me through so much, in ways that they don't even know!!! Love you all, and love to ALL human beings for just BEING!!!!
