I do not fully understand
I do not fully understand my sibling's walk
But I must listen when they talk
For my sibling, I must be willing to to go the mat
And self-assess for biases that lay thereat
Language must change so my sibling can understand
Who they are even if they do not identify as woman or man
And so i can understand and facilitate
In creating a world devoid of hate
My sibling may be different, but there is no need to fear
They have always been here
This poem is about:
My family
My community
