My Pronouns are Fat/Fatty
I’m also really sick of pretending
That there isn’t a population of queer people
Who live to gatekeep, and that
One of the many demographics
That disqualifies someone from queerness
Is fat–
The very thing that
Lately, I realize,
I am. More than anything I am
Fat.
That is all anyone else sees, so it is now
My main topic.
My pronouns are Fat/Fatty and he/him
Whichever one
Comes first, and whichever one
Allows me to avoid
Talking to people again.
