PART 1


the giver

that’s what I am

I give and give yet receive nothing

whether it’s giving my body to my mother

giving my heart to my partner

giving my mind to my job

i give until there is nothing left of me

i am left with nothing

and those I had given to

see the flaws of my gifts

see them as thrift instead of gold

is who I am cheap to you?

i am leslie king!

but what weight does that name carry

besides the weight of my body my mother said I had too much of

the weight of my heart when he made it heavy

the weight of my brain when work became too much

i give and give

but when will I receive?
