You sting like honeybees,

bleed like mockingbirds,

and love chameleons---

you change colors for me.


See, when my father

became a shapeshifter

it became dreadful

to look for eyes


He turned my mind into bruised melon

as I became a stew of expression---regression


I’m torn from who I once was.

This fall is melancholy,


the same way love

seems to run inconsistent.
