This is a slam poem, and it was very difficult to convey the way I'd speak it out loud in written words. Weird grammar is intentional here.


i'm-in-flux...

UP  is never better than DOWN is never deeper than

my limit. YET.


today I know things tomorrow I'll forget, 

but I'm always stuck in the instants.

Why can't I recollect,

I'M IN FLUX... ?


So last week? I couldn't keep up.

Today I strutt like a million bucks.

I'm in flux...


Always bank on what I feel, what I believe is real, the truth is:

THERE'S NO DEAL.

I can't steal from the past,

so when I'm downcast

will I recall today I was okay?

That I'm worth another day?

That I'm in flux?

That when everything FUCKING SUCKS

that everything's... in flux?
