Feels
I know you felt it
I know you did
I saw it in your eyes
I am not alone in this
You were right there
with me
Feeling the feels
We aren’t supposed to feel
the spoken word
I conceive these pieces with the beat of my heart,
then birth them with the fire of my voice.

born in the east, raised in the west
daughter of two academics, both artists
masters in human rights, committed to social justice
love affair with travel, art, and food
speaks four languages, laughs in all
