I walk around these places Trans-centric spaces Yet I don't feel like I belong I know that I look like them And based on my reading I feel like them too Though I still have this sense That I somehow do not count I am not quite enough I feel without a place Maybe because last time I was at a trans art show And my art lives in words Not in images on canvas Just another piece of me That doesn't quite feel Real enough or Good enough To be taken seriously And I know I know This all boils down to The way I treat myself But I'm trying I'm trying Some things just take time
