When did
my greedy paws
start feeding my brother and sister?
When did
my elders fables
revamp from boring to brilliant?
When did
I stop wailing to the world
and start muting my tears in the bathroom?
When did
clowning with boys
turn into warnings about their evil ways?
And when did I realize that time on the bus when the boy bullied my braids ran deeper and darker like the glow of my skin?
When did I start growing up?
