Blame Your Vulnerability
Was it because I learned
too much too fast,
that your father was a snake
and your mother was a saint,
that your siblings are growing up
and you are not there to bear witness
were you concerned
over the depths I explored
in mere hours
or were you unsure
how we would be
when drag queens weren’t pouring Stoli down our throats
without the excuse of liquor
to blame your vulnerability
