IT'S TIME TO LET THESE FEELING'S GO
I BEEN HOLDING ONTO THEM WAY TOO LONG NOW
THEY HAVE HELD ME TOO FAR BACK NOW
IT'S TIME TO PLAY CATCH UP
I HAVE TO DO IT RIGHT NOW
IT'S TIME TO LET THIS SHIT GO
RELEASE MYSELF FROM THIS DOOM
I AM SO FUCKING TIRED OF THIS SADNESS AND GLOOM
IT'S TIME TO GET READY AND TREK THE GLOBE
I WILL GIVE YOU ALL OF ME
I WILL GIVE YOU ALL I BEEN BLESSED TO BE
I'LL BE SENDING SHOCK WAVES THROUGH OUT THE SEAS
I WALK OUT CONFIDENT AND SHAMELESS
EXPOSED, UNCENSORED & UNABASHED
TIRED OF MY LOVE BEING FORBIDDEN

+Street art is by:BANKSY I titled "Camera Shy" I felt it accompanied the poem "HIDDEN' well. I like the flower have felt camera shy and underexposed. But when I shed the shyness and come out of hiding I can expose the True me in all my wonderful Glory fully exposed in both the physical and emotional sense. *(I originally wrote "HIDDEN" for a Book titled "Joto(ho-toh)v. An Anthology of Queer Chi/Xicano Poetry" The book is being published and is coming out FALL 2011. It's a groundbreaking collection featuring 3 entries by me and the work of 55 Queer Chi/Xicano Poets from across the country and Mexico. I decided to hold onto "HIDDEN" for my personal project which I currently am writing and developing as we speak. "HIDDEN" is a simple piece but it is my declaration of independence so to speak. I am declaring I will no longer edit myself nor be ashamed of my body(the physical me) nor my body of work (my poetry/writings/art). I feel entirely liberated to share my true art in various forms. My love for life, art, poetry, music, photography, film and sexuality will no longer be bound. I feel free to expose the essence of my true self in full (Mind,Body & Soul) As I continue my journey I hope to inspire and conjure up dialogue when my work is presented in various forums. As always Enjoy and Become Your Dream ;-)
