She is who she says she is Perhaps in another time Her muscles rippled with a mannish gleam And her labors where of the masculine Herculean But now she is feminine Concealing her strength Beneath soft garments Concealing her past Under a new name Genevieve Who was once Gene Now is free to be Who she wants to be The rooster Becomes a phantom limb Split and turned in Sleeping How freeing For her outsides To match how She feels within Thick lips strong chin Broad shoulder Deep voice I am fascinated It never bothered me In fact I saw it beautifully Variety in humanity Why should you be Bothered

Genevieve
She is who she says she is Perhaps in another time Her muscles rippled with a mannish gleam And her labors where of the masculine Herculean But now she is feminine Concealing her strength Beneath soft garments Concealing her past Under a new name Genevieve Who was once Gene Now is free to be Who she wants to be The rooster Becomes a phantom limb Split and turned in Sleeping How freeing For her outsides To match how She feels within Thick lips strong chin Broad shoulder Deep voice I am fascinated It never bothered me In fact I saw it beautifully Variety in humanity Why should you be Bothered
