I'm very tired of this "queer college students should stop supporting Palestine, they'd kill you there!" I watched a hijabi ask a trans man, "but what name do you want to go by?" A butch giving a woman their hoodie so that she could keep her hair covered after the cops took her scarf. Muslim girls making sure the lesbian couple got through the system together. Religious men making sure purple haired protestors got out safe. I don't want to hear it. Solidarity forever, free Palestine.

"Here are your tortured poets. All from Mahmoud Darwish to Dr. Refat Alareer to Khaled Juma, these are tortured poets. Tortured by longing for a home they can never return to, tortured by the world they were born to for BEING BORN. Palestine, home to the tortured poets department." [@/folkoftheshelf on X.

Pink elephants

I saw pink elephants across my screen

They looked at me, “FAGGOT” they screamed

And in one word cascades came down my face.

Did my father expect the tears rolling from my eyes to dry

When he told me “real men don’t cry”

Did he not hear his morals panic, twist and turn

When he told me “fight with your fists and not your words”.

I felt my body cease to breathe, hitting nerves like silver bullets

And all my memories would plead, spiked far far far to their fullest

There is no future for a sodomite.

(this is one of my worst poems ever 😭 but my friend likes it so I posted it for them)

My eyes are torches

My eyes are torches, Matthew 6:22, and you are a moth

The woman walking beside you must be divine, for she does not collapse upon sight of you

For she does not long like I do. 

And those beside you,

They claim to have seen heaven on earth, 

Yet they don’t describe you. 

For they do not long like I do. 

And my lips fall into yours, 

A dive away from humanity.

And you pull back,

For you do not long like I do.

A call from A. Talib

The telephone rings,

The dials turn by themselves, 

And I reach for the lyrics.

Soft baglama play in my ears as a voice connects from the other end. 

“I’ve been waiting for you”

I glance at the contact.

Eyyy Tumblr

Okay so basically the shit is that I am gonna upload my poetryyy and maybe write some new ones. Everything on this account is messy ash and things will always be misplaced and stuff, I also might make a secondary blog down the line but just bear with me on that stuff because I'm still learning the controls and things.

He/she | Minor | Leo | In an identity crisis cause all I know is that I like men |

Call me Silver or any nickname really

(leaving space to edit to make a DNI list later <333)

TW: Will get offtopic easily, might discuss some heavier stuff (Outing, Eating disorders, CSA, etc but I will make sure to TW posts containing that and not retweet stuff abt that), a lot of my poetry is based around love, heartbreak, pining etc so if ur not comfortable with that either then avoid my blog. Sometimes ill put NSFW references in my poetry but itll be sparingly and not go into detail.

You can find me on Pinterest and Wattpad!!! (Be warned theres gay smut in my wattpad reading list and some Pinterest pins may contain depictions of gore in art and nose piercing and ear piercings both in art and photos)

I'm a libertarian socialist and I just wanna make it very clear, FREE PALESTINE 🍉🍉🍉 , FREE CONGO, FREE WEST PAPUA, FREE FORMOSA, FREE ALL QUEERS
