For Those Told We Feel Too Much
we grew up without room to grow
taught we’d stolen any space we occupied
pruned into bonsai trees
when we should have grown into forests
we do not exist to be calm, quiet, agreeable
we are not the still surface of a lake –
we are forces of nature
ecosystems don’t die off to be polite
and the weather doesn’t quiet
to make others comfortable
