Transgender
Transgender meaning
Going somewhere
With gender, I suppose.
Moving. Changing
Where to?
Anywhere’s fine.
What’s changing?
Perspective, not even mine— usually.
Gender transportation !!
You don’t have to stay
Where you are, you don’t have to
Go far, either.
You don’t need hormones
You don’t need validation
You are what you say you are
That’s everyone else’s privilege…!
That’s what you have the right to, as well
These cis folk are fucking kidding themselves—
Right?
Gender is how you feel inside
How you identify
Not what someone else says
About you and your life.
Why would anyone take
That sort of advice
About anything in their lives—
Let alone who they are
When they close their eyes?!
