"bisexuality" poems
If you are a girl and you are bisexual, you're really just a **** If you are a boy and you are bisexual, you're really just gay. Bisexuality isn't a real thing, it's a phase. You're confused. All girls are secretly bi. You're just more honest about it. Bisexuals like everyone, they don't know how to have real relationships. Bisexuals are looking for attention, They're dramatic, They're confused, They're ***** Idiots Sinners Immature. Wrong. Bisexuals are people.

Things Straight People Have Taught Me About Being Bisexual
Slipping stocking on silky smooth legs. Wanting and yearning to turn people's heads. Dressing up nice in a posh frock. Knowing people will judge, people will mock. Applying makeup like a pro, But needing to keep the status quo. Styling a wig to look like a girl. Feeling the butterflies, head in a whirl. Looking deep at the eyes reflected in the mirror. Where is the man? can just see a glimmer. Feeling for a moment that he does belong. Takes a deep breath, tries to stay strong. Feeling comfortable within his own skin. Just slightly visible, hair growth on his chin. He will not venture out as he's branded a freak. But really he's normal, maybe a bit weak. For if he goes out people think he is guy. He's just like me and you at the end of the day. Some think he's bisexuality, it's really unfair. He's just heterosexual with a little more flare. All he's ever wanted, is to be accepted. In this current decade still is rejected. If you gave him a chance you'd see he's real nice. His heart is so warm, not cold as ice. He loves with his heart, is caring and tender. Look deep within, he is only transgender.

Transgender
Whatever happened to bisexuality? You either choose one or the other. Well, **** you. I exist. Feminicity and masculinity are partners in crime. I guess I'm two in one. I'm not better than you, but I'm sure better than most. In the end though, I love you. Even if the hate builds up,  I ******* love you.

it took me years for me to face my fears to realize that it is okay to be bisexual it took you a second to spit out words of blame now all I hear is, the ringing of "wrong" and the beat of "stupid" a string of sharp knives come right at my heart I'm starting to cry and ask myself why is it so wrong to be me?

As a bisexual, I fear Few will want you to be proud. They will bend your ear Saying things to you out loud That would be better left Totally, embarrassingly unsaid Instead of rattling around Inside the cathedral of your head. Too many try to make it Seem like a kind of venal crime To want to make love with Someone of your own kind And maybe with the same Gender with which you were born. To some it is very biblical And subjects you to public scorn. Finding someone **** With the same plumbing as you It not only delightful It can be a dream come true. It feels correctly natural And works like the other way Even though people scorn And use words like *** and ‘gay’ Or ****** and even taco Whatever that might end up meaning. The important thing to me Bisexuality is so powerfully appealing. So, those who dislike me And feel so righteously zealous That bisexuality is wrong Are very possibly just jealous. Or maybe just uptight Living by someone’s else’s rules; Not what they’ve learned And therefore are bigoted fools.

BISEXUAL BIGOTRY
No place for me at my house. Yelling, expectations and failures take what should be mine. I will never be good enough And so I have been pushed to the side. No place for me in your heart. I ripped open my chest for you to see mine beating rhythmically, And you pushed me away. I have had to pack my bags and look elsewhere. No place for me in my mind. Thoughts of who I have become make me want to crumble. I cannot think about myself for too long, Or I will not survive. I have a tiny one-room apartment in hope for the future. No place for me in my church. I have hidden my bisexuality from them, Because it is not exactly smiled upon In the conservative community. No place for me in my town. All these ******* look the same With their money and clothes And the fact that they couldn't care less. And do not get me started on their Republican morals. Will their be a place for me? In the ripples and folds of time? Can I ever find a place where I can stay for a while And be accepted? I guess that's why they build hotels.

Purple has always been my favorite color. Mixed with Red, the color of passion, And Blue, the color of dreams. Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved purple. “Dark purple” I would add, “With sparkles” I had to specify, and toss in a cute giggle. I was so young then. So innocent and naïve I didn’t know that purple could symbolize something Something like peoples’ rights. That was back in the days when “gay” was just a word Often appearing in Christmas songs I always knew it to mean, “happy.” So, when I heard that two men were gay I was happy, because that must mean that They’re happy. When I got older, I learned that happy as those men may be Others weren’t happy for them. People weren’t happy that these men were gay. I never saw anything wrong with it. I was not gay, but I was supportive. I didn’t care what other people liked. Then the term, “bisexual” came up And that blew my mind. People could like men and women? No! I was straight! Of course I was. I didn’t like women, but I didn’t care if you did I liked men. That was that. And then there came the fatal attraction Nearing me towards bisexuality, And I embraced it. All of the sudden, I liked men and women. Without even realizing that it was in me, I realized I liked them. My mother was shocked, but supportive. My father was the same. My brother still doesn’t know. My friends were all excited for me. Some were confused. Even a year after realizing it, some couldn’t tell. Some thought I was joking. Some still do. But nope, I was not. I was bisexual. I grew up Catholic, and I knew That God loved all his children, And every creature great and small. And I believe this; If God made me, wouldn’t he want me to be happy With whoever I want? If Heaven is that cold, Then maybe I want to be cradled In the warm fires of Hell. If God is our father Satan is our Uncle Our gay uncle apparently. Man. Woman. I just don’t care, So long as they love me for me And I love them for them, I couldn’t be happier. One day I will find someone, but I don’t know If it will be a male or female. But it will be someone. And I will always wave the purple flag proud. Free and happy.

No agreeability. Force herself right into me. See how she hides everything. Oh but yet she can't accept My bisexuality. No, honestly. Why am I still pondering? Why am I still wondering? Why the **** am I sitting here Worried about what my momma thinks? Seriously. I don't worship Deities. She said I did recently Why do I even care when She can't read me decently? It's not fair. I know what I feel there. I talk to Him, I'm not scared. I don't need to be treated Like I'm spiritually impaired. The last time I've committed no ******* crime I'm not replica of your design This body I walk in, This body is mine. And despite of your words that burn I will keep loving my life.

Rant
I was encaged. at the filligree age of 13 I told my childhood friend I had fallen for the way freckles fell like sawdust on her teacup skin and the way her lips blushed around a cigarette that always burned too close to the filter In that town, with bleeding jaw town like funeral bells all were straight until proven otherwise. in that town ALL WERE SAFE UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE. In 1892 the word bisexual was first used for being sexually attracted to both women and men. Bisexuality does not explain falling in love with fire.

Wildfire.
Once I looked to the Bard for words profound; ageless, his wisdom ran unabated. Yet Hamlet is now ideologically unsound, “the slings and arrows” historically Iocated. I wept for the creature of Frankenstein, spurned by his master, forced to roam the Earth. But I’d been subjectively positioned in a paradigm by Mary’s anxiety about childbirth. I read Balzac, Hardy and Henry James describing “worlds” which seemed quite sensible. Now Eagleton’s exposed their bourgeois games I find them morally reprehensible. I dreamt of being Robinson Crusoe or proud, fierce Hawkeye in his buckskins dressed, but Fenimore and Defoe have to go, they’re culturally encoded and empirically obsessed. Inspired by Guinness, did James Joyce sit down to see what magic flowed when he was ****** The stream of Ulysses floats Bloom-about-town dreamthinkingnever : “I’mamodernist”. I’d gladly give Woolf a Room of Her Own and be one of the boys with Hemingway, but sensitive guys leave their bulls alone say de Beauvoir and Luce Irigaray. No more fun with Wordsworth being daffodilly, no simple pleasure reading Mickey Mouse; Steamboat Willie can’t help but look silly dissected by Foucault and Levi-Strauss. The Bible shows intertextuality says the two Jacques, Lacan and Derrida. Judas, a construct of bisexuality? The **** fixations of Herod are? It’s got so bad I deconstruct a holiday brochure. I can’t even **** without Roland Barthes and Ferdinand de Saussure.

LAMENT FOR LOST LITERARY COMFORT
I live my life in extremes Polar opposites attract in the center of my soul And for some reason, living on opposite ends Seems to be a fashion trend I am not the "I made out with every girl in my college sorority So now I'm bisexual" type of queer Not to out-and-proud vomiting rainbows type of bisexuality I am the bisexuality that gets erased The eighth grade girl who, when she told her first boyfriend she was queer, He told her she was over dramatic and crazy. I am the bisexuality that gets oppressed Because I am confined to the walls of a shrinking closet Or is it expanding? I have lost my sense of left or right Up or down Yes or no. I am not your manic pixie dream girl type of bipolar Not the girl who needs saving from her mental illness Not drowning. I am the bipolar disorder that becomes overwhelming The depression that chains me to my bed in the morning The hypomania that seems euphoric, but is never happy The grey area, the lone horizon, the empty space in the middle Seems like something I drive through over the speed limit Every day of my life. While my extremes do not look good on your favorite actress They look beautiful on me. Not an outfit I can strip down when it goes out of style Not a channel I can change when it is not appealing anymore But I will learn to love my fluctuations My mood pendulum My love pendulum I am swinging from state to state But at least I am flying Instead of falling.

Extreme Fetish
Were we really that tight anyways? So we texted every day of the summer So we laughed together in math class So we were both supposedly bi Were we really that close in reality? So we knew everything about each other So we always thought about one another So we "actually" missed going to school But were we really Best friends? And we held each other when we cried And we smiled every time we passed in the halls And we protected one another in times of need But that was just for one year And then it suddenly went out the window No more texts No more laughs through class No more bisexuality to connect us No more knowing everything No more thoughts of the other No more missing school No more hugs as we cried No more smiles No more protection It's gone, and the chain that's been twisted and bent last year Finally snapped and so did our bond It's utter ******** about what you're claiming I did to Chloe But I'm stronger then that Because that year when we were close, was a major mistake

Best Enemies
Hot tempered An unborn member Fearful of joy She is her own toy Caged by society Confused with bisexuality Locked up in her own thoughts She could of cried but her throat is clogged All corners of her mind Seem not to be kind The monster haunting her Is the sadness of a young girl who died in a massacre May she be set on fire She should of yelled louder Her walls are getting tighter Silence. No more struggle The pain is over She wakes up to see her own daughter Quiet and still She remembers her strong will *Beautiful she lays Small and perfect With eyes like her own The creation worth living for Her daughter so tiny Asleep next to her She knows there is no hiding Only to face and deal with the struggles For her delicate little child The constant reminder of why she is alive* They're always the same problems And they may get worse But she takes a deep breath in Because she knows how much she's worth. How much she means to someone To know what it's like to be alone. Well that is a feeling she will not let her baby girl know.

The cure (her)
Alexander K Opicho (Eldoret, Kenya;[email protected]) With audacious openness Let me accept substantial lot of men folk When it comes to efforts in love, Most are misfortunate. Every time they dare to built Affiliative bonding for love With beauties beheld By their limited eyes The invincible whirling spell Of fortune’s fool Beguile them forlornly Down the social abyss of time, I and my type not an exception to the club Of the guys who swallowed misfortune Like the dog of Theodore erotokorostos Does to a piece of bone In poetic obscurantism Of the corruptible simple souls Obtaining their pathetic lot from ***** and wine, In the first trial I chanced on a neurotic peasant, In the second trial I chanced on turn to be henpecked, On the third trial I chanced on a beautiful paranoid, My fourth trial chanced me a deadly stooge, My fifth trial gave me the worst blow As I forlornly chanced on the time’s public commoner, My sixth trial makes me chicken Had it not been poetic audacity That makes me brave to chew in public The lot of my misfortune as I recall The bitter sweetness of chancing on A beautiful epileptic kleptomaniac, My tired trial in the waned efforts Chanced me a lesbian with insignificant bisexuality, O! I now tire off from misfortunes of love With a last black chance on a neurotic money-maniac, And this is the silent lot of men In their usual efforts to fulfill their dreams of love.

MISFORTUNE IN SERIES OF LOVE
She was stark naked I could see her **** And her boyfriend had Quite the **** on him. His meat should have Made him quite proud And the lady’s **** For crying out loud Were perky and prominent And quite nice to see. Both of them seemed To be pointing at me. And I seemed to be Eagerly pointing back. They both very obviously Aware of that one fact. She smiled openly And the guy broadly winked. I started asking myself “Do you think? He did wink!” So, I winked and smiled And let them see my bone And hoped this meant I Would not be alone. I hoped they’d invite me To sit on their beach towel To slather sunscreen on them Like a human mortar trowel. There are not many things There are few better for me Than hot mixed couples Into some fun bisexuality. I have games for both kinds And genders of human beings All based on the stimulus Of what I’m feeling and seeing. Generally a single man Is not lucky at this scene A common concept that I Always found to be quite mean. I understand about jealousy, An emotion foreign to me So, I usually keep my distance And behave circumspectly. But when I get the go-ahead I never hesitate very long. How could something this good Be considered bad or wrong?

THREEWAY FREEWAY
I was born with ovaries for a brain And a cavity for thought The predisposition To put my hand down my pants At the age of seven But with a good berating From my unconditionally loving mother The putrid seed was recognized Its stem ripped from my mind Torn from my ******** Too late Obviously Too oblivious To notice that the roots still tangled around me Its vines growing up into my ****** The **** that encapsulated my mentality So the birds and the bees were my friends At the age of nine And that cute boy across the playground Was cuter when I envisioned him naked Only a mere three years later And my susceptibility Ignited the sight of cybersex The capital *** Or more commonly known as *********** But when my parents soon discovered The poisonous vines of dependency The toxic ivy of addiction It was forced to an abrupt halt Too late Obviously Too oblivious To notice the compulsive ************ That kicked in with the involuntary lust For a pillow to trust under my hips Before the age of fourteen Securing the hypersexuality So that the hot girl in the hallway Was hotter when I envisioned her naked And hotter than the boy next to her So the bisexuality Tormented my already demented desires By the age of sixteen Simply because I was born with ovaries for a brain And a cavity for thought.

"Why don't you come home more often?" "Why don't you bring that nice boy of yours over anymore?" "Why don't we get to meet this friend that you talk about so much?" You ask So many Questions. And I just shut down And you just get mad Because I have nothing to say That will please you. Why don't I come home more often? Because this place no longer feels like home. Home is where you are accepted Not judged. Home is where you are safe Not targeted. Home is where you feel loved And I don't feel loved here Anymore. Why do I no longer bring my boyfriend around? Because he can smell plastic people From a mile away And he turned into a greyhound The moment he caught wind of your ******** He isn't as courteous as I am And I envy him greatly for that. He won't paint his skin to match your plastic shine Just to be called one of your own. I wish I could do the same. Why don't you get to meet my friend? Because I'm in love with her. And my bisexuality is the only thing I have left That you cannot Judge Or Taint Or **** You can be as homophobic as you want about my friend Because he likes boys And you can change the channel When you see two girls kiss But you can't see what's right in front of your face. You created the very thing You despise. So I won't bring her over Because my kiss is still on her lips And my boyfriend holds my hand Through it all Because he knows That I need this. You made three perfect children. All married. One grandchild One on the way. Two girls and one boy Living out your dreams. A scientist and a nurse and an aspiring policeman. But don't you forget That you also made me. Your little Outgoing Antisocial Loving Bitter Bisexual Baby. The youngest of four. The "oops" of the litter. You made me. But that doesn't mean you Own me. And that doesn't mean you Define me. And that doesn't mean you Need to accept me. Because I don't need your acceptance. I don't need you at all. So "I won't be back home for awhile." "Alright. We love you." "If only."

Selective, elective, feigning acceptance Nodding your head in that knowing way “It’s just a phase” isn’t just a phrase With every passing day your ignorance tests my patience Forgiveness is a virtue But you “forgiving” me for what I am Doesn’t make you a better person than those who hate, discriminate, separate us as wrong Why can’t you wrap your head Around what I’ve said I like boys, I like girls And yet even my own community hurls Misinformation and false narration LGBTQ LGBTQ Bisexuality is valid We aren’t confused or indecisive This shouldn’t be divisive You dare to say That we shouldn’t stay Because we have the “choice” of being “normal?” When did bisexuality become not gay enough When did bisexuality become not gay enough When did bisexuality become not gay enough I don’t mean to be callous But bisexuality is valid

Valid
You started as a girl With wavy blonde hair, worn long (for religion) And sea green eyes. You always wore a skirt (also the religion) And hated it, railed against it every day. That girl didn't last long, The quiet girl who wanted out. You were still a girl after With short blond hair and green eyes, But now the skirts were gone And so was the quiet. You began to rebel, But only in small ways. Hair And skirts And secrets never told, except to me. This girl became a leader, Strong and proud, MY leader. Next you were dangerous. Hiding yourself with Cuts and the cuts with Long sleeves and harsh words. I tried to help, hide, anything at all But it was hard, With parents snooping, Checking my email, They discovered The cutting and Everything else. I was ordered to talk to you and In doing so, Smashed your trust in me. You never forgave me for that, The dangerous girl I knew. Next you were hard and sharp With dyed hair and A slash for a smile, And new-minted bisexuality. I tried so hard to balance On the edge of your affection And my confusion, To find a way to be "normal". But why try? Normal doesn't exist. I couldn't do it, so I Gave up and Flirted back At, you, the girl I loved. Now you're a boy And I worry for you. Your mother won't speak to you And your father ignores you And I had to move And there are too many things I worry about. You can take care of yourself. I know that much to be true. After all, you cared for me When I was younger, And for that I thank you, The boy you've now become.
