the weight with which we hurl ourselves at brick walls and glass ceilings
how ready we are to break at impact and die trying

butch

reversed
masculinity I emit
distorted vibes

men see
themselves in my shirts

opposition opposition

dishearteningly they do violence to
their reflection

masculinity bites once

femme

streamlined
femininity you receive
exaggerated signals

men overlook
the intention of your dress

the collective asses of men
as they look to me

- mama, is that person a boy or a girl

- ma'am, tell your daughter I am whatever the fuck I want to be

- mama, can I also be whatever the fuck I want
