FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS

I offer you my hair

my skin

my memories of fifth grade

- including Samantha Casini

(whom I offered so much to

at the time).

I give you what I have

what I may gain

what I am

free of charge.

Take from me what you can.

accept from mine all you wish.

Place me however possible

into you.

This is my wish for the holidays

this is what you can give me.
