A Rengay collaboration penned by Nolcha Fox, Melissa Lemay, and me, has been published on Collaborature. Thank you, Melissa Lemay, for featuring our work!
Here are the first three stanzas.
Pain Will Do that
pain is the perfect weight loss plan
food tastes bitter
even cheesecake makes me flee
holding a pen too long—
my wrists ask me for Ibuprofen
if I could, I’d challenge pain to a duel
my titanium joints, my weapons
I’m a cyborg, pain, get ready! .........
