Coquette
by Maya Zaveri
I learnt a new word today.
‘Coquette’
I didn’t know there was a word for
a flirtatious woman

Sometimes I like how my curiosity makes me
want to learn things
that won’t matter in a few months,
or weeks

Black Sheep
by Bame Bame
I am what I am for a reason
They overlook my purpose, but I’m here for a season

But every time I tried, the society told me no
They spent years praying for a miracle
The idea of me being the answer seemed horrible?
They tore down the very thing that came to build them
