Why Boy, Why Girl
I’ve never questioned why.
I’m comfortable
with who I am,
in this body,
with this mind.
But why?
Specific, individual
Maybe that’s why,
There’s no
way around it.
Is it a bull-s**t social
construct, just marketing?
Maybe that’s why
there’s these
umbrella terms.
Who could even tell?
Facebook makes it easy to change.
But how easy is it?
It’s a spiritual thing
they say.
“They” are taking US
to another place.
Do we
ever really know? Where
we’re going
Now,
a woman’s running
for president. Why
do we have to look at her
as the first? As a woman,
what difference
does it make?
I’ve never really questioned why,
until now.
