#010 Jhene Aiko Efuru Chilombo, 2017

For my sisters thinking about that new dream job, that new workout plan, or those beautiful set of chocolate brown eyes: here is a poem for you! 

Check out previous entries to meet sisters writing vibrant poetry throughout America!


10 Fish

whoever said 

"fools rush in"

was wrong


the dumb thing to do

is to wait

too long


because laters

and eventually's 

aren't promised 

to come


all we ever really have


is this moment


just one


and moment

to moment

it's new

and it's young


and waiting is death 

to what could have begun


written by Jhene Aiko Efuru Chilombo, 2Fish (a poetry book), 2017.
