Poems by Tashi Swierkosz

Rainbow vomiting
Colors merging into space
Vibes are all that last

***

Pieces together
In creating unity
Maybe we should too

***

Stop Waiting Start Creating

I’m done waiting
For people to make up their minds
I’m done waiting
For a reason to smile
I’m done waiting
To feel more satisfied
I’m done waiting for things to change
So it’s time to start creating
Fulfilling experiences that paint smiles
It’s time to start creating
Moments that matter
It’s time to start creating yourself

And it’s time to create
The change you want to see
More and more people are done waiting.
