when i did not know who i was
i thought religion might tell me
i sat in a patronizing seat every other day
and did not ask the questions that itched
because questions are for those unfirm in their faith
when the teacher said,
'gay marriage is disgusting and
you should give money to Proposition 8,
cause they don't deserve rights'
i stood up,
cooly told everyone that
his words were that of a *******
walked out the door
smugly aware of the many
open jaws
and never looked back.
