Sometimes some of us cannot afford to be ourselves...

About

"If there was one thing I could save from the fire, he said, the broken arms of the sycamore, the eucalyptus still trying to climb out of the yard - your breath on my neck like a music that holds my hands down, kisses as they burn their way along my spine -or rain, our bodies wet, clothes clinging arm to elbow, clothes clinging nipple to groin - I'll be right here. I'm waiting." -- Richard Siken, Saying Your Names

“Sometimes some of us cannot afford to be ourselves all of the time, even those of us who have more-or-less committed to our own fabulous uniqueness. Sometimes, we put on a uniform. We sell a product. Sometimes, people do what they need to do to survive.” Melissa Petro; I Don’t Have the Privilege of Being Fabulously Unique | xoJane
