for the wealthy

by being with you i'm learning who i'm not
i'm remembering all that i am now
and learning to receive
i am not your project
and i am not your experiment
nor your investment
or housewife

i will not jump when you say jump
or write when you say write
i will not wash or cook when you decide you're hungry
i will no longer be hurt by you
demeaned by you
you may not take my wings
you may not pull my strings

i will receive love
i will only receive love
a wealth of love
