This Title Needs To
Location
If this title defines who I am to society,
Shouldn't it speak volumes?
It should -
But fuck society!
I am a proud, closeted pansexual
With a romantic heart and a dirty mind.
The only labels I believe in
Are the ones on the outside
Of my Nike shoe boxes.
Size 8 red and blue Cortez
Because I am an All-American
Free-Spirit with an Armenian temper
And an Irish desire to drink.
I don't go around saying,
"I'm the type of person who . . . "
If you're interested in this mystery,
I'll slowly unfold like a paper map,
And let you decide what direction
We take on this adventure.
I've been burned before,
So beware of speed bumps.
But you can unlock my heart
With one simple hug,
Because if you knew how much
I loathe hugs,
You'd save it for the one time
I need it most:
When society fucks back.
Call me a dyke,
A rug-muncher,
Confused,
Call me everything in the book,
Just don't tell me this isn't who I am,
Because if your title of me
Is a definition
Represented by one word,
I'm going to publish a bible
And name it my title.
