"sexes" poems
It is difficult to be a man, For I am not a typical one. It is hard for me to go on, There’s a secret that pulls me. I loathe when my memories strike, They hit emotionally with might. I struggle so much to survive, In a world so deaf towards my cries. I look at a He and my heart convulses, For I recall a He who gave me kisses. I was young, forced and naïve, I fought but He was much stronger. Society might tell that I’m gay, For I let a man violated me in a way. But I’m not a ***** and I’m sure, I play a role for which others envy. When I was a teen I met her, I admired her even if she’s older. I was then shy and very timid, With mental and emotional scars. I thought of her as a dear friend, Then she turned to be my worst fiend. One instance she forced herself on me, And used things that hurt me so. A girl’s tactics differ from the stronger *** Tears she used first and blackmail next. She was cunning, sly and very clever, She stole my pride and my dignity. My fears now mixed with anger, My determinations got bolder. I still cry and sometimes get lonely, Like any other victim I want to fight. I can not shout to the whole nations, For societies will scorn at my declamation. Both sexes forgot that I have feelings too, I am also made of flesh, bones and spirit. I am not proud of what I become, Within me clouding reasons try to calm. My desire is to win this battle to the end, I am capable of vulnerability like any human. But where does my right begin? This universe has compassion for women. The likes of me are expected to be steel made, Yet I have feelings too for I am just a man.

I HAVE FEELINGS TOO
It is difficult to be a man, For I am not a typical one. It is hard for me to go on, There’s a secret that pulls me. I loathe when my memories strike, They hit emotionally with might. I struggle so much to survive, In a world so deaf towards my cries. I look at a He and my heart convulses, For I recall a He who gave me kisses. I was young, forced and naïve, I fought but He was much stronger. Society might tell that I’m gay, For I let a man violated me in a way. But I’m not a ***** and I’m sure, I play a role for which others envy. When I was a teen I met her, I admired her even if she’s older. I was then shy and very timid, With mental and emotional scars.

Two people both alike in character Of the opposite sexes Sit across a candlelit dinner In a lovely, fancy restaurant The room is incandescently lit With a dimness that balances between ever so bright and ever so dark Allowing for a gold tinge to envelop the restaurant But not gold enough to take away notice of the lit candle set upon the White table cloth The waiter appears and asks the couple What they would like for dinner The couple order the food and drink Much to the waiter's delight the food and drink is expensive The waiter returns shortly With a bottle of their finest Pinto Noir And pours the blood-red wine slowly Into each of the couple's glasses And leaves the couple to sip upon their sweet sin delicately The food is laid out Triumphant in its debut A vast smorgasbord of entries Including frog legs, crab, and delicious ****** steak The couple prepare their silverware for the battle that is eating The man stabs his knife into the ****** steak Cutting it open and spilling the juices all over his plate He stabs the meat with the fork and guides it toward his mouth And slowly but surely chomps upon it with the strength of his fine jaw And swallows the meat into the unexposed mystery that is his stomach The woman begins to mutilate the frog legs with her knife Cutting into the once moveable limbs And stabs the limbs with her fork and brings it to her mouth And delicately bites the limbs and politely chews And swallows it into her fine and precious insides The couple then split the crab legs Using their bear hands they split the shells open And remove the meat or **** it right out of the shell They swallow it whole and do nothing with the shell Leaving the shell aside to be as still as a carcass The waiter arrives and asks how the food was The couple obliged him with their satisfaction The bill is handed to them and the couple pay it Leaving a hefty tip They then leave the lovingly dimly lit restaurant To enjoy the night that is ahead of them

People ask me what it’s like to find women sexually attractive Often I’m an outcast for liking the same *** But in the lesbian world I’m an outcast for liking men too It’s confusing really There is no way to explain the way women are And why they are so appealing to me Not only is their outside appearance alluring and beautiful But their insides are vulnerable, broken, and insecure I like that, seeing a women shattered because of society I like the honesty that encloses them in a blanket of insecurity Men on the other hand Well, they are strong and handsome on the outside And a bit more emotional than you’d expect on the inside There really isn’t a reason why I’m attracted to both sexes I just am, I was born this way I suppose I say I suppose because I am not quite sure how the whole human nature and sexuality thing works Men and women are both appealing Their minds differ so much that I crave both Call me selfish; Because I am I crave to know human nature in any form it comes Man or woman, I will not judge

Sexuality
This greeting comes Have a nice day Easier said than done Haven't had one in a while Can name the reasons why The list as long as the Nile What to do or what not to do The question I'm left to ponder solo Feels familiar, always has, oh no! What shall I do? Rescue me! Come to me on bended knee It won't happen, we're not dating I'd sabbatoge it if you did I need pure raw emotions that you keep well hid The sexes unstable in this world today What connotations does it carry When you say, "have a nice day" February 10, 2014

Have a nice day...
A breadcrumb I am - the morsel of my old dough,      a piece of chewed bread rotten, missed near a toe, shredded by the sons of righteousness and “normality”,      entombed I am under the carpet to fulfil “morality”. Mum added the yeast for me to grow, as well as flour,      Hoping my crust would golden as a vivid live flower, She sprinkled little salt into me, to know the grimes,      Sugar too, for life brings out the salt to eyes, at times. Dad poured the water, to soften toughness uncalled,      For man is kind too, not merely clay masked, walled - And above all, they added affection and compassion,      They wanted me to satisfy mineself, not one’s ration. Into the oven, 9 minutes, under fire: I show colors,      The warmth turned the heart warm for all others; I am left to rest, to harden the shell and eternal body,      To be perfect as ma and pa wish: not adverse, shoddy. But the stale, unpuffed, unfresh bread of this world,      covets but loathes what is good and not yet twirled, It wishes for me to inhibit mold and evict dignity,     Mais allez, étrange moi, expose me not to malignity. The least of their gurgling sounds puncture heads,      And the weakest of their advice the spirit dreads; The making of me is the capacity of mine flexes,      Your ingredients suit not me, mortals and sexes. Days yearn for you, not this battle of complexes:      You, mine old dough who suddenly “complex” is, My parents baked me on low heat nice and gentle,      And they sear me with words not for me, mental! Know you: Pita, Kmajj, Brioche, Shrak, or Baguette,      Bread is bread, could be different, but it is no threat.

It is quite interesting The way in which women can proceed through life, In such a grossly hypocritical manner. Scorning love, And mocking their lovers openly, As if to say, your feelings don't count, Only to later on raise their voices in condemnation Of their slighted partner, Thereby proving that they are without a doubt The far more dishonest And petty, of the sexes.

Hypocrisy
When words are not enough, and the world won’t get off her back, she dances the Devils way, She’s a princess, wait she’s a queen, wait she’s an angel, wait she’s everything, a Goddess, the hottest performing artist I’ve ever seen, and she’s dancing, dancing is her therapy, I mean, I’m not James Brown, but it’s a man’s world, even if Rihanna runs this town, See, she’s been suppressed all her life, and I’m not just talking about Rihanna, I’m talking about every girl that was ever forced to be a wife, just to survive in this life, she was touched by her father, or brother or cousin, when she was just a little girl, I know we all wish it wasn’t, but it is true, so what’s a girl to do, when she’s a clean 13 messing with The ***** Dozen, this isn’t battle of the sexes, this is war of the worlds, wants to be a woman but she’s just a girl, no No Doubt just burnt out nerves taken turns, she never asked to be born, with the burden of being beautiful, but she refuses to conform, she is attractable irrational and radical, so when it’s all too much, the stares and the catcalls, the aggressive forceful touch, the nails across her back like a blackboard, and the moans become just white noise, she takes it all in, she forgives the man because he’s just a boy, he is an angel even if he has fallen, she takes it all in, and she uses all of those abuses, as the fuel with the tools which induces, an allusive state of truth which, allows her to move with intuitive smoothness, and lose herself in the music morphing into what a centrifuge is, separating fluids transforming what was otherwise useless abuses, into a truth that cruises and confuses the stupid stooges, she dances, in a statement of glorious refusal to submit to their ideals, she is more than a princess queen angel goddess, she is fire burning up all preconceived notions of *** appeal, the real deal, dancing sweating cleansing her soul and her pores, moving faster in progression refuting repression, overcoming an obsession of oppression and knocking down all doors, she is not a possession, though she is possessed when, she’s a dancing expression of how we all feel and more, no words are enough, she shows what we all feel, she reveals what, was before thinly concealed, she is the perfect expression, of imperfect circumstances, she is poetic stanzas, she is the paint on the canvas, there is no question that she is the answer, and all of this is made clear when she takes it all in, let’s go of everything and dances… ∆aron L∆ Lux ∆ #strength #metoo #dancer #ballet #blackswan

I went for an X-Ray the other day. My name was called and after the expected delay, I heard a nurse say Right knee? I said Yep! She said “Come this way… Can you get your trouser leg up to your thigh"? I said “No… these skinny jeans don’t go that high”. “In that case” she said looking me up & down... with a frown Pop in that cubicle… and put on this gown! For a start…it took me ages to get these trousers off… and force the rest of my stuff into the carrier bag supplied and then, when I saw the gown, I very nearly died! It would have fitted me just fine if I’d been 18 again but the gaps and bulges in the thing were a farce... and allowed everyone in the corridor to see my fat 71 year old **** I said out loud when I sat down again in the queue “You know…I had an inferiority complex before I met any of you. But this has definitely taken me down a notch. And I apologise about the view”. However, inside the X-Ray room with all the techie kit and Radiographer Rob, I felt better… The pain in my knee had almost gone apart from a distant throb. Then he said “You’re completely safe, just lie back calm, quite still…serene”. Whilst he clicked the shutter from the other side of his lead lined screen. (So he was alright then!) Well, I’m home again now, hobbling about… It’s bearable (not like childbirth ladies) but not great. I’m sitting here with my leg up waiting for the letter that will let me know my fate. Ah yes… men and pain! There is a well know fact about the differences between the sexes. It’s proven that, with men, colds become flu…and ailments:- epidemics… (No really!) So, here’s the letter… Now...will it be Ointment? Physio, to transform a permanent slouch? Or a keyhole flush with a catheter? Or - Oh no!… For me - it’s a titanium replacement knee!… Ouch! Somebody pass me that gown!!!

my life, a prison
Common arguments like which decade is better the 90's, 80's, 70's or the 60's each had its advantages and each had its disadvantages good things and bad things the same can be said for the 00's and the 10's I'm a 90's the same decade that we got the TV show Friends Common arguments like which football team is better Arsenal, United, City, Chelsea or Liverpool each club had its chances, had their time We stood by them through the good times and the bad the same goes for every other team I'm a Liverpool fan, the 2005 Champions League final was like a dream Common arguments like which *** is better Male or Female Each are equal but have more sexes to compete with these days we might hate our opposites at times but we love them really Common arguments like which country is better U.S.A, England, Russia, China or any other country We all have our problems, we all have our good points Leaders might argue and fight but social networks have connected us Our leaders might not realise but we have more in common with each other than we ever knew we are all united in our goals and our dreams that is a statement that is true Common arguments some times go to far people get hurt one word fixes most arguments "SORRY"

No place of safety! 12. Before thy Lord (alone) , that Day will be the place of rest. 13. That Day will Man be told (all) that he put forward, and all that he put back. 14. Nay, man will be evidence against himself, 15. Even though he were to put up his excuses. 16. Move not thy tongue concerning the (Qur'an) to make haste therewith. 17.

Does man think that he will be left uncontrolled, (without purpose) ? 37. Was he not a drop of ***** emitted (in lowly form) ? 38. Then did he become a leech-like clot; then did ((Allah)) make and fashion (him) in due proportion. 39. And of him He made two sexes, male and female. 40.

My body Is not obscene. It is not something That needs to be hidden, Brought out only in the dark of bedrooms, And showers, And alleyways, And incognito mode. My body Is not for sale, Not a commodity, though if I chose to sell it for money you'd ridicule me-- Deep down you love it, don't you? The fine you pay for fine curves and no promises. Those desperate nights you need something to come into. Is that what we are?-- Somethings? And no sooner exchange the dollar for a dance than sweettalk for *** And I could do the same to you, too-- I am not excused. Not that you know that. We all pretend I can't... Just a prize to be won? I'm not anyone! Come on, try to take me... And when you do, oh-oh-oh! Congratulations! Lucky you! You got me. Success Sweet success. I have desires too, But they don't matter-- If I want to **** him, he's the one who won Because females don't desire. And being trans? Genderqueer? Androgyne? Hell, that doesn't exist! What a load of **** And I smile now, because I don't remember how to cry. I am not allowed to desire, And if I do, and I reach what I want, Then I am a **** Worthless. Trash. But were I a "real" man, I would be a winner for it. Anger has lived in me. Jealousy has made my bones its home. I am not allowed to exist. I am not allowed to want. I am not allowed to sin. I am not allowed to be. I am a second, a lower form. Collateral-- And I'm yours. Why do you worship my body and yet disrespect it? And disrespect me? I cannot exist. Kiss me just to shut me up---- I'm tired of pretending to be human in a world that won't let me be. I quit. You complain that I complain. But sexism pervades every moment of my life: I am constantly fighting it; Each kiss, every **** My schooling, my career, Everyday conversations, All of my relations to other people, no matter which kind, Each time I shower, Get dressed, Exercise, Turn on the TV, Go out to the pool or a hotel or on a walk, Sexism is there to hold my hand. It is with me. I've never had an ally so loyal. It wouldn't dare leave my side. Would I dare? To leave it behind? Would you? Could we join hands, Across genders, Across sexes, Form a new alliance? One that helps me feel safe in my own body, My own mind, My own home? That gives other women and other afabs a chance to be seen as more than just bodies? Will there be a day when I can stand beside an amab, both our chests bare, and be seen as equal? Will there be a day when you will see me as my gender? And will there be a day that you will finally see a trans woman as more of a woman than me? We may be females. Biologically or mentally-- But that does not define us. We define us. This is My Body. It is not me, but it is mine. It will never belong to anyone else. My Body.

My Body
My body Is not obscene. It is not something That needs to be hidden, Brought out only in the dark of bedrooms, And showers, And alleyways, And incognito mode. My body Is not for sale, Not a commodity, though if I chose to sell it for money you'd ridicule me-- Deep down you love it, don't you? The fine you pay for fine curves and no promises. Those desperate nights you need something to come into. Is that what we are?-- Somethings? And no sooner exchange the dollar for a dance than sweettalk for *** And I could do the same to you, too-- I am not excused. Not that you know that. We all pretend I can't... Just a prize to be won? I'm not anyone! Come on, try to take me... And when you do, oh-oh-oh! Congratulations! Lucky you! You got me. Success Sweet success. I have desires too, But they don't matter-- If I want to **** him, he's the one who won Because females don't desire. And being trans? Genderqueer? Androgyne? Hell, that doesn't exist! What a load of **** And I smile now, because I don't remember how to cry. I am not allowed to desire, And if I do, and I reach what I want, Then I am a **** Worthless. Trash. But were I a "real" man, I would be a winner for it. Anger has lived in me. Jealousy has made my bones its home. I am not allowed to exist. I am not allowed to want. I am not allowed to sin. I am not allowed to be. I am a second, a lower form. Collateral-- And I'm yours. Why do you worship my body and yet disrespect it? And disrespect me? I cannot exist. Kiss me just to shut me up---- I'm tired of pretending to be human in a world that won't let me be. I quit. You complain that I complain. But sexism pervades every moment of my life: I am constantly fighting it; Each kiss, every **** My schooling, my career, Everyday conversations, All of my relations to other people, no matter which kind, Each time I shower, Get dressed, Exercise, Turn on the TV, Go out to the pool or a hotel or on a walk, Sexism is there to hold my hand. It is with me. I've never had an ally so loyal. It wouldn't dare leave my side. Would I dare? To leave it behind? Would you? Could we join hands, Across genders, Across sexes, Form a new alliance? One that helps me feel safe in my own body, My own mind, My own home? That gives other women and other afabs a chance to be seen as more than just bodies? Will there be a day when I can stand beside an amab, both our chests bare, and be seen as equal? Will there be a day when you will see me as my gender? And will there be a day that you will finally see a trans woman as more of a woman than me? We may be females. Biologically or mentally-- But that does not define us. We define us. This is My Body. It is not me, but it is mine. It will never belong to anyone else. My Body.

A Veritable Cathedral
Lost in the club on the way to the bathroom American dreamless, existed in a vacuum Every day, another way for us to consume Raids on the senses, a general consensus of the senseless, reprehensible amendments The armaments by the tenements, diffused Confused, never used, lonely in the fugue And you You who assume, presume, eschew the ruin of the brewing times, rising tides, the lies and of ties that bind - us to the times and to meaningless rhymes By illuminated rooms when the eye blinks Think, blink, the pink rink - closed By the hours that be, powers that see Subversive naturalism in a state of debate, compensate the reckless Feckless and dick-less, compost of the senses The sexes have wrecked us, ****** of the spectrum By your septum reset them, mind wiped Iconic lights gone The new light's on Right on

The Drifting Away: Of International Relations and Timely Disconnection
Circle Circle Dot Dot This dream of mine has been shot. This nursery rhyme is no longer a good time. The lights are dimming. The sexes are mixing, exposed to the epidemic. Everything is becoming a work of spin art. No medicine can provide a vaccine for this lifestyle. Circle Circle. Dot Dot. Endless cycles of not.

I can't concentrate because of your words, the ones I can't help but listen too. You say people are selfish for loving two kinds of people, not one. You say that it's confusing, to like both sexes the same. Like we need you to understand, like we need your permission to like who we want to like I never asked you at all.

YOU'RE SELFISH AND IT'S CONFUSING
I'm sick and I'm tired of these men always tellin me I gotta be round, ***** curvy and sultry To be down with the boys I must want all the novelties They fantasize about in their minds, sprinkled with misogyny  Lookin up and down, undressin me with droolin eyes Can't walk across busy streets without feelin victimized Violated in public, creeps sneakin peaks up my skirt All cause I wore tight clothes with a lower cut shirt  Is this all I am, some delectable tasty treat? Just cause you think I'm delicious don't mean I want your meat I'm vegetarian now, keep your distance please  Only hungry for life and creativity  Yearnin to grow and continue to educate Myself even if that means makin mistakes Already have media fillin my brain with these lies Don't need to be feelin your hands up my thighs No I'm not your girl, don't even wanna look at you Cuz you'll misunderstand my glance for bein into you  So what if you call me a ***** or a **** Don't care-I won't be the chick bustin your nuts Just want my mothers and daughters and sisters to know We're not created to give men any type of show We're human beings capable of thinking and feeling As well as making decisions, we have a purpose, a meaning Other than getting all **** and appealing  Silenced and bogged down by society  Women ***** and murdered, blamed for their femininity It's a shame men don't realize without us they would never be We're the only *** on this earth capable of maternity  As breeders of life we nurture and care Yet our voices seldom heard, like we're not even there It's time women put a stop to this ****** up** ideology That we matter far less than our male counterparts  - what equality? Hating on feminism just because they don’t see This world overflowing with double standards and ongoing dichotomy Between the two sexes- sure it’s not how it used to be But sexism runs rampant and will for eternity Unless we all - men and women - fight against it globally.

For God’s sake hold your tongue, and let me love, Or chide my palsy, or my gout, My five grey hairs, or ruin’d fortune flout, With wealth your state, your mind with arts improve, Take you a course, get you a place, Observe his Honour, or his Grace, Or the King’s real, or his stamped face Contemplate, what you will, approve, So you will let me love. Alas, alas, who’s injur’d by my love? What merchant’s ships have my sighs drown’d? Who says my tears have overflow’d his ground? When did my colds a forward spring remove? When did the heats which my veins fill Add one more to the plaguy bill? Soldiers find wars, and lawyers find out still Litigious men, which quarrels move, Though she and I do love. Call us what you will, we are made such by love; Call her one, me another fly, We’are tapers too, and at our own cost die, And we in us find the’eagle and the dove. The phoenix riddle hath more wit By us; we two being one, are it. So, to one neutral thing both sexes fit, We die and rise the same, and prove Mysterious by this love. We can die by it, if not live by love, And if unfit for tombs and hearse Our legend be, it will be fit for verse; And if no piece of chronicle we prove, We’ll build in sonnets pretty rooms; As well a well-wrought urn becomes The greatest ashes, as half-acre tombs, And by these hymns all shall approve Us canoniz’d for love; And thus invoke us: “You, whom reverend love Made one another’s hermitage; You, to whom love was peace, that now is rage; Who did the whole world’s soul contract, and drove Into the glasses of your eyes (So made such mirrors, and such spies, That they did all to you epitomize) Countries, towns, courts: beg from above A pattern of your love!”

ashamed
It was the rain against the windows And the moonlight sonata playing That accompanied my transition Into melancholy insomnia In the mid-morning deluge of the overcast sky The reading of books and Freudian dreams The watching of movies, Kubrick stare and all Where emotions are captured and paraphrased Amidst fight clubs and Fantasia The Klimt surrealism outreaching from the walls A lone piano listens, glistens; ripples of time All dissimilar reinventions Swirling in the incense smoke rings Dancing in the flowing spirit air Free and marvelous among vacant living room eyes Memories recall the rain of Pasadena Over rustic-themed modernism for Eager tourists and the nonchalant few Whispering words to descend the stairs From the surface to below where thrusting cocktails reside Years ago in the same position But younger than I am now At another desk with a bleeding pen Pouring over the torn fickleness and skin I saw Matchstick men smoking flesh roaches in alleyway shadows Something hidden underneath the seen frailty Single mothers courting hairless young men Cracked anchor teens moving to a beat not of their own Act of demon from the hand of God Itching skin and slimy **** for sexes of all; the men can take a turn in bearing the small. Tales written from reflection and soul Those wanderers and solicitors passing over the sick The dead that laugh and the living that cry Cold flesh injections stock markets for cattle to imbibe Like so many humans do

Silver-skin Reflection
this being dedicated to wicked woman hiding cold eyes behind overlarge sunglasses; sporting blackest velvet dress coat firmly buttoned smoking long, cruel cigarette lit from glare off your cartier-replete wrist as hordes of men in line to perhaps hold your parasol while you read tedious course material are turned away by singular lazy wave of the unsympathetic hand, ashes falling & cherry red nail polish flaming across the patio panorama like hellfire; with hard, rangy body and cut-to-shoulders blonde curtain to hide behind, safe upon your wicker throne; wary of males & their hidden, bursting sexes.

untitled no. 337
When Adam and Eve played love's old game We thought early romance a little too rough We wanted kinder and gentler rules We looked at it good and added our touch We turned it sideways and looked at some Masters Cleopatra and Marcus, Burton and Liz We looked through history and weighed each technique... Studying hers and studying his         We re-invented love         Applied TLC without the big rush          Someone had to do it; it was way overdue         And no one gets in it quite like me and you         Making it perfect, re-inventing love     We wanted to see the sexes more equal From Rome to Paris we studied their style We watched new positions in old Kuma Sutra In Mumbai and Murmansk to the banks of the Nile Now when they ***** a great Hall of Fame The applause will come down falling on us They'll put our names upon a big plaque Everyone marvelling and making a fuss         CHORUS Bridge:   Now the cave man technique is gone from romance                 Barbarians no longer can come to the dance         CHORUS
