because Dad forgot
the good cereal
I chose to seppuku
in the morning 
I seppuku
to avoid washing my face
in the afternoon 
I seppuku
to avoid conversation
I seppukued before bed
to feel stuff
I felt so much stuff
I had to seppuku
I felt so good
seppukuing!
I seppukued in front of racists
who were like, “OH MY GOD
THIS CHICK!”
and my dead seppukued body 
was like, “uh huh!”
I died for racism
I died for white supremacy
I died for yellow peril
I seppukued three times
and each time
was more amazing than the last!
I actually want to seppuku
an entire country
and encourage the galaxy
to self-seppuku
to prove the necessity of repetition
that we must keep saying
SEPPAKU
and keep
SEPPAKUING
if we are to survive
if we are to be the animals
we were before we were
these exact beings
WE ARE NOW
and will always be
