Excuse me
if I'm in no mood for
respectability politics.
We should not have to be
shiny happy people
holding hands
for you to
value my humanity.

I am not your pusher
I am not your *****
I will not stand aside
and hold the door
While you climb
and push me to the margins:
• skip my footnote
• ignore my humanity
• take the credit
and more
I will not sit back
(hide my pain)
While you continue to
Slander my name
(steal my flame)
A desire for:
•Equality
•equity
•fairness...
You fake.
My fire/my heart
Our creations/our art
You take.
