maybe

maybe god is under
a different roof
maybe parents should
let the child choose
their name
maybe i've become
a ghost, not mine,
in my own skin
maybe all flags
are wrong
constantly at
hand cuffs'
edge and
comforted by
restraint
and when my prayers
are halfway houses,
i don't say hi
to angels.
i don't make friends
with the demons
who
can also quote scripture.
maybe home is a whisper
maybe i don't belong here
reluctant and afraid
of paradise
when i say god
i say me too
a different roof
maybe parents should
let the child choose
their name
maybe i've become
a ghost, not mine,
in my own skin
maybe all flags
are wrong
constantly at
hand cuffs'

of paradise
when i say god
i say me too
