Babies Spitting On Other Babies
As a content creator
Some things seem to be
So repetitive
That it’s almost like
Brain dead replays
On repeat
Of the same concept
Over and over and over again
Things like
“Protect trans youth”
And
“Black Trans Lives Matter”
Neither of which issues
Improve much
The more you like, share, and love-react—however
What else is there to do?
I suppose generating the content
Reaches certain folks, but
Honestly
Nowadays
If you look for queer resources
You find political touches
On every single aspect.
Being queer is inherently political
Being a minority, requires you
To be politically mobile
Otherwise you will be tread on
The way the libertarians
Think they are.
It just kind of sucks
That in the middle of all this
Persuasion, nobody really mentions
How lonely and futile it can feel
To be queer and lost in the world
They only seem to pay attention
After something horrible has happened —
Same way
It only becomes part of the social justice canon
If it went wrong
In the effort to connect folks based on
Their queer identities, we’ve instead
Made some sort of mob
Of babies spitting on other babies.
