Religion — TAM

My work is about how to be in relationship with God, not just worshipping. It’s taking the next step forward. It’s existence

taking up space like a birthright.

It’s about standing in who you are, confidently.

& On the Day of judgement,

I find that God/Allah sees themselves in you.

A world he created vs the DNA he built.

gashes, scars, burns

& a remedy.

(7.18.26)Currently.

I am lost in the eyes of God.

in the field

of ideas spanning from

devout to atheist..

meet me there.

where

grass is flammable

& my lungs carry the weight

of compressing stress.

I cry Allah in silence

& speak

dominion

over the earth

only to find water

still

relentless.

What’s the point of my existence?

Hello August,

I bring you in with a shed—

really hoping for a clean start

longing for the life of an angel, helpmate

in existence

& nothing more.

no free will

ing wonky outta my boundary

it is written

with this life I’ve been given

all I feel is rage

Why, why?

I don’t like living this way

I’m not loving this way

Get me out

into the night time

Four walls won't hold me tonight

& if this town, is just an apple

then let me take a bite.

If they say why? Why?

Tell them that it's human nature

(Why does he do me this way)

I find myself

at the split path

against all the books and propaganda

there’s a someone inside

natural & unmale

& I choose me.

Why is there so much guilt in that?

carrying them like my buckets

of water. miles on end

blisters heal in saltwater

like my soul.

August sun,

please rise to burn me clean.
