My Project 2025
by Saeed Jones
After Maggie Smith
I am having more sex.
I am louder when I have sex.
I am asking more questions.
I am asking questions like âwhy?â
and âwhat happened to make you feel
that way?â and âdo you feel safe here?â
and âwhat can I do to help you feel safe
here?â I know I like to talk; I love the sound
of my own voice, but Iâm going to shut up
and listen more. Clearly, I havenât heard
all thatâs been said. I am protecting myself.
I am pulling up the drawbridge. Iâm asking
Black women to pull up the drawbridge.
Iâm Whitney Houston in the last verse
of âItâs Not Right, but Itâs Okay.â Iâm
paying my light bill and taking care
of my babies. Iâm in the bath tub
covered in bubbles and surrounded
with candles and good wine and I wish
Frank Ocean or Bill Withers or Frank Ocean
and Bill Withers were in the bathtub
with me but their voices will do. I am
pulling the voices of people I desire
and love and trust and worry over
into me. I am inviting them into the bright
dark of my soul. I am gonna live forever
because all the money I touch looks at me
and says e pluribus unum, out of many,
one. I am the water Jesus drank in the desert.
I am god talking to herself. I am evicting
America from my body and making room
in the borders of my black bad bitch body
for everyone I was sent into this life
to love loudly.
