I AFFIRM

I AFFIRM

A Poem by Glen Fitch


 
      
        I am alive.
            And even when alone,
                I have the skills and peace
                    and all the stuff I need to thrive.
                I'm more than good enough.
        I value,
                honor,
                    all that I have known.
        My love's immense
            My humor is profound.
        I show respect
                in everything I do.
        I see the best in all.
        My word is true.
        I now embrace my health.
            I'm strong and sound.
        I will be gentle     
            with myself today.
        I will fulfill
            commitments I have made.
        I will confront,
            forgive,
                and be of aid.
             I will pursue my dreams
            and pray
                    and play.
        Right here,
            right now,
                I claim and own what's mine.
            I am prepared
                 and this day I will shine.

Carpe diem, I guess.

A word is a wager in thought. Every one I pick is a bet that it will mean to you what it means to me. That is at least today, relevant to my race, class, gender and community. The fine print in my poe.. more..
