"trans" poems
~*for M. both a living one, and imagined, too*~ 10/5/25 just woke up and began to work; the muses are cofuse-ed they think when head hits pillow. it is there then the~moment to refill my head with verses glorious, alas, alack, into the sub-subconscious furnace they go to melt, meld or even die iron of ironies; 90% of these words, were adrift in my head when I to bed, "for to be repaired" last night, and only came to be recalled @ 2:34 am when them muses and you guru, woke me to 'get outta bed', and you    who bids me sleep, this clashing arousal, starts engine's cylinders to begin live~composing, stoking and stroking, to awake, create, reassemble and uncover the poetic notions trans~versing my head one-day, someday they will depart, for cleaner, greener Champs-Élysées, where reborn poets speak all languages with equal fluency, eagerly awaiting my spouting in Hindi (already ✅), in Hebrew and any/all dialecticals this god earth ever mothered And there you have it, my FPOTD, dear m., SUNday 10/5  & writ in the city where I am alive in the Den of Writing, where the muses like to hang out with their old companion, until such time they will come to inhabit a younger, well rested, equally restless, a not-my-mine mind <nml>

FPOTD: good mid-of night, my beautiful muses, living and imagined
Title : Being Transgender Being transgender Being transgender is unique. Being transgender isn't disgusting. I find these people wiser and stronger. Because they are not afraid to show who they love Bullying someone because he or she is trans is not cool. Actually, they are making themselves fool. what would matter if I am trans, or your best friend, even your neighbor? That's right it wouldn't matter! If someone think being trans is wrong, they are just being childish.

I think sometimes, about what it means to be transgender. I probe and probe for answers, because as the possibility for a new age of enlightenment and safety increases, the others want to know. I’ve come up with many answers, but I can hold to none. I don’t deserve to paint the definition of a culture with the limited experiences I’ve had. I don’t see myself in the transgender identified people allowed on television. I don’t see myself in the transgender identified people making news feeds and giving high profile interviews. And as my nation’s exposure to our culture increases, likely will their curiosity. Am I transgender? Do I have the right? I’ve heard doctors, psychiatrists, may refuse transgender patients access to hormone therapy based on how dedicated or convincing their portrayal of their identified gender. If you want to be a man or woman, you’ll have to look like the women and men on TV. If you want to be transgender, you’ll have to look like the trans identified people on TV. Every single one of us who has an active role as either participant or observer in our society is prey to the crisis of validity. Am I pretty enough? Am I strong enough? Am I brave enough? Mom enough? Dad enough? Competitive enough? Successful enough? Rich enough? **** enough? Pious enough? It never ends. We’re, as a nation of people, being crushed and compartmentalized by this ever present lens, looming over us, exploiting our weaknesses and fears so it may grow wider, and support itself as it follows us, seemingly forever into the future. And one of the worst fears this camera of existential torment exploits, in most of us every day, is, “Do I have a reflection?” “What does it look like?” “Do I look like me?” What does it mean to be transgender? I can’t get away from that question. But I don’t have an answer. There are varying degrees of anguish, depression, panic, anxiety, and other wonderful emotional states that creep up on you and breathe down your neck nearly every waking day. Absolute contempt for the lie of a life you’ve lived till now, and contempt for the fragments still stuck to you, in memories, attached to your body and mind. Fear of those in your own community who would purposefully humiliate, invalidate, or attack you, choosing their own universal moral code over the innate urge and capacity to support the health and continued well being of another human. A ******* neighbor. A ******* pupil. A ******* employee. A ******* sister, brother, son, daughter, mother, father, cousin, ******* blood. What is being transgender like? By my experiences, it’s just like being anyone else in the country. But with a lot more fear, death, exclusion and medication.

Catapault me into chaos, I wish to get a little closer. Your tainted eyes speak to me. I wish to get to know you, just a little bit better. If I can handle it, I'll stick around and play. Too much pain is a killjoy. If it burns too much, I'll blow out the fire someday. Criss-crossdresser, I'm seduced into your submission. My identity remains in shambles, I'll see you on the otherside, as I walk through this transition. A possible phase, or a permanent reside? I am lost in mindless self indulgence. If I dance in the rain, I'll no longer have to hide. An eternal blue flame, made of youth and spirit. Love could only feed the madness. To remain the same, is something my mind could never inhabit. So dance, and dance, and sing the tunes of duality. I experiment with composure. And once I find balance, my dream will be that much closer

Same but Opposite
I am Christian. I believe in the Trinity of the Holy God, The Son, and The Spirit, I believe that Jesus is the Son of God and the savior of mankind I own more than three Bibles I teach Sunday School every week and I pray every night. I am Christian, And as such I Hate queer.... Phobia. I can not stand intolerance And I cry at hatred, Blood running in the streets, Fear running in veins, Running away from the truth. I am Christian, yet There are bloodstains in my Bible And the prayers on my lips Are for forgiveness for who I am. The entire story of ***** is Crossed out, blacked out angrily In the dead of night In all 4 versions, Leviticus is blurred, Wrinkled with my tears, Soaked with my pain. I am Christian And I am not homophobic. I know my church won't recognize Non cis-het marriages, Leaving entire worlds of rainbows in the dark The higher-ups insist Weddings are white, shiny, husband-and-wife, happily-ever-after affairs That shove me and my friends, my family, my lovers, Into closets of heavenly wrath and Fire and brimstone sermons, Locked into personal hells of shame And confusion. I am Christian And I am not straight. My God doesn't hate me for who I love, He loves me because I try not to hate. So to the homophobic Christians, I ask: Who is your God? Who is your God that supposedly condemns people He has created in his own image? Your rainbow picket signs are nothing but a cruel mockery of a covenant Not truly shared by you. Your tongues are no better than the viper's who called Adam and Eve to sin, You are the vipers of my world. Do you think you avoid judgement When trans teens are killed By the bullets you spit with your words? Who is your God, That tells you to picket the funerals Of those you hate? Who is your God, That refuses to let you open your heart to differentness? I am Christian, And I don't need your permission to Love my God. Take my scars and tear-stained Bibles, Listen to my fervent prayers, Watch my lips tremble when I listen to my pastor. I don't need your permission To love who I want, In fact I don't want it. Take my midnight screaming and fear of coming out, Listen to my frantic pleading for a hand to hold, Watch my eyes linger on her chest. I am Christian. My God doesn't hate me for who I love, He hates you who refuse to love While you carry His name, if Not his blessing. So I ask again Who is your God? Because mine loves all of me, All 5'6" of queer pride. Who is your God?

I am not at fault. I didn't do anything wrong. Why am I being treated as though I did? Stop it with the pity and the shame. I am not ashamed. I don't need pity. Especially not yours. Life is messed up, but I am not. One in five. one in five. ONE IN FIVE One in five LGBTQ+ people have been mistreated because of their ****** orientation. It's not that hard to find these statistics. Look it up. Look up anything about LGBTQ+ people and I'm sure you'll find mistreatment. I'm sure you'll find harm. I'm sure you'll find that they harm themselves. Because they feel at fault. It's not their fault that they feel a common emotion towards another person you, selfish, close-minded.. mmm. No. Four in five. four in five. FOUR IN FIVE Don't talk about it. The way they were mistreated. If you don't really get that If you can't  really fathom that Almost all of them Almost every single one of these people that have been mistreated don't even talk about it they don't reach out they don't tell anyone NEARLY HALF of LGBTQ+ people in school are bullied Are mistreated Are hurt Are mocked Are called names *** ****** *** In school. Yeah, bullying happens all the time over stupid **** All the time. Wearing glasses, looking different, being gay. I get it. It happens. Whatever. Nearly half. "72 countries criminalise same-sex relationships ... The death penalty is either ‘allowed’, or evidence of its existence occurs, in 8 countries In more than half the world, LGBT people may not be protected from discrimination by workplace law Most governments deny trans people the right to legally change their name and gender from those that were assigned to them at birth Between 2008 and 2014, there were 1,612 trans people were murdered across 62 countries - equivalent to a killing every two days A quarter of the world’s population believes that being LGBT should be a crime" Oh hey, just some statistics. Isn't that interesting. Isn't it cool to take a step back and check that out. That's pretty crazy huh? Pretty outrageous. But, you know, maybe if you weren't such a *** I did nothing wrong. I tried to stop it. I tried. But how can you stop Doing What Is Natural. People are hurting People are dying People are being killed People are killing themselves Stop it with the pity and the shame. We are not to blame.

Echo and Narcissist
I could speak all day on how I have faith Yet Truth is, I don’t have faith I would like to believe I trust myself Yet I barely put an ounce of love on that shelf I don’t have faith that the right person will come and take my love Because I am scared I am scared that if I gave into anyone That if I even trusted my love with you That it’s just going to hurt that much worse when I let you go I’ll have that much less faith in myself the next time I even try to love I’m scared that you’ll say all these nice words to me And possibly mean them But I won’t trust myself And blow the only chance I had at loving you I’m scared that if you saw who I really am you’d leave And want nothing to do with me And in all honesty I really couldn’t blame you Yet I could blame myself. I could have faith that all my friends right now are loyal That they would never talk about me behind my back I could trust them with anything I wouldn’t even be ashamed Yet I have been played And most of yall just sit there and smile in my face It’s like getting on a plane ride And trusting in the pilot to fly me safely But then the rumors come like birds flying into the engine Then down goes the plane Because there is the same flock of birds flying back my way Why won’t they just stay in their cage? Don’t any of you realize You’ve made me this way Do it again lie to my face you’ll be another bird ruining my plane The true friends are the pilots Trying to guide me out of the bird’s way Yet instead they get brought down with me My real ones don’t deserve this I’m the one who need to take the blame I have a couple of parachutes Hopefully they’ll escape while they can I’ll stay though because the day this plane finally crashes I hope those little birds will finally realize their damage So much for flying this plane to heaven I could have faith in myself But I am not going to lie to you because I need you to have faith in me I have been hurt The kind where you stay up at night Wondering what you did to deserve this What is your purpose Do I even belong here Does anyone see my tears I loved and I trusted And that just got me here Questioning everything Everyone I know I am hard of hearing But it seems like I’m not the only one who can’t hear Or do you choose not to listen? These are the same people I’m supposed to have trust in? Have love for Tell them everything every little sore If you could see my heart You’d ask What’s that little clump on the floor? Where’s yalls heart at I don’t see them anymore All I hear is she’s this or he’s that All this makes me mad Why can’t we just love each other Is that so bad? Is it so bad to accept each other No matter gay, straight, bi, or trans No matter the color of skin Not matter what music they listen to Or if they fit in with a trend Can’t we all realize Everyone needs a friend Everyone needs to spend Just a little more time seeing who I am Who you are Who he is Who she is Who we all are Because that is what we need To be able to have faith in each other.

My gender can change at the flip of a switch They say it's impossible They say it's just a glitch They ask if I'm male, female or non-binary I'm all three I'll tell them finally that's when They start to frown and look at me like I'm a clown "you can't have all three you must choose one!" "the science doesn't support it, *** how do you explain it then when my gender decides to flip again when I go from someone who loves herself to someone who can't look at himself when I can't stand to be either gender I refuse to stand by and be a pretender Is it too much to ask for you to respect me? To let me be myself, to let me be free? To ask me what my pronouns are when you see me at a bar? my gender is mine you will not correct it you will not make me feel like a misfit because I know who I am, what I am there is no right answer to this exam my gender is fluid don't act like you're clueless because I don't fit in a neat little box I don't care if you think its a paradox because you don't get a say in who I am today I'm not nonbinary I'm not trans I'm fluid

I’m fluid
Pluto says Keep your hug Pluto says Dwarf Planet my *** Pluto says Sticks and Stones ************* Pluto says I know what I am I don’t care For your “opinion” Captured by the Kuiper Belt! Please. Or one my favorites, A cold rock! You called me a trans-Neptunian object? I have five moons! An 11 year old girl tried to name me. She won £5 but I’ve had many names. I am fond of Hiro. But I’ve also liked Minerva. I am hardly a minor planet. In 2006 they tried to make a verb out of me To "pluto" is to "demote or devalue someone or something.” **** You! So passive aggressive and insulting. I am not carrying that around with me My orbit is 248 years. At a 17 degree angle thank you very much To pay my respects to that egomaniac Sun. Why would I care what you think? Perhaps I am envied because I am so far away. I don’t think that I am far away at all. It’s relative, no? Yes, I am removed from that Versailles situation over there and all that ******** That horrible planet You know the one that I mean. The one that’s crawling with “things” They’re not even you. Disgusting. I am awash with molten ices and I even sport a plasma tail. I spin in nitrogen gases On my own path Alone With my FIVE moons! Just us! They claim that there are other Dwarf Planets here and there And even go so far as to suggest That I am the puniest amongst them But with my five and five more still That’s 10 to 8 And you already know what I can do.

I don't care if you're straight
Rapunzel Rapunzel let down your hair, I can't, I cut it all off. I don't want that glass slipper either I'd rather have some combat boots. I don't want to see the world like Jasmine, I want to see equality. Ariel wanted legs but I want the right body. Beauty and the Beast, How about beauty and the trans? True loves kiss won't wake me from this nightmare, one simple letter will T. They call me princess but I am the prince. I am not the damsel in distress because I am the knight in shining armor. Born a princess but becoming a king. I am a princess without the S's

Princess without the S's
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

"Trans?" Nonbinary
Let me stop here. Let me, too, look at nature awhile. The brilliant blue of the morning sea, of the cloudless sky, the yellow shore; all lovely, all bathed in light. Let me stand here. And let me pretend I see all this (I really did see it for a minute when I first stopped) and not my usual day-dreams here too, my memories, those images of sensual pleasure. trans. by Edmund Keeley and Philip Sherrard

Fold you up like unwanted fat cook you into a rocky stew placed beneath a mantle of ice far enough away to be misconstrued You are old laminated time And pillowed rock of incomprehensible Earlier than any lime Or sand, or sediment, or any kind You are the grandfather rock of mine When I step with my inconsequential feet living but transiently I cannot help but be erased that even you hath but one resting place All the plants and sands and ever since the very first we have always been ****** to this earth walking upon your bones I am sorry we cannot do more but you know your creator Speak in the same language in amalgamators of which we have forgot and for that I can say we are envious; are we naught? Build softly, and carry us upon your thick crust like pizza dough, cooking and you let it sit Let us win, set us up drift us apart, leave us crushed build us, make us, break us, fill us I want to be restored into your stony belt and be redeemed I want to become my own atomic fossil to connect with the universe through long-lost plotholes and once again hear the story as a young lad the way it was meant to be told I want to eat dinner with my grandfather again my real sweet stony-chiseled cheeked father again to be loved a boy and a girl and the whole world a soul touched back into the deep left unshackled by a ***** or a queen please, take me back soon rather than let me turn into Laurentia or Baltica or Gondwana alack smacked into new rock to form Urals and Tetons and Moher back Carbonate or Silicate, and the end its the same It won't be the end for that fate rearranged

A seemingly fine day ruined with one headline. Then another. And another. And by the time my phone stops buzzing the news couldn't be any clearer. We lost a battle today. A battle for basic humanity, a battle to our own autonomy. "Women" lost. "Women" should be afraid. "Women". "Women". "Women". Every headline I read talks about how scary the world is for women. Yes, the world is scary for women...or anyone with a ****** I don't want to make this about me. Because it's not. It's about every transgender man that fights for healthcare on a daily basis. It's about every non-binary person assigned female at birth who can get pregnant. and yes....it's about women. It's about people (men and women) who think their ideals should determine what I do with my body. It's about every pastor, minister, judge, and human being who feels they have a say in how my life is lived. Poetry has always been and will always be political. Poetry is art and art is expression of feeling. Today....I'm ****** I'm overwhelmed with a feeling of dread. The same feeling of dread I felt during the 2016 election. The same feeling of dread I felt the night of the Pulse Orlando shootings. The same feeling of dread I feel every time I think of wearing my trans pride shirt out in public. I'm not afraid to say how absolutely terrified I am....I'm just afraid for whatever is coming next. Sincerely, - Your friendly ****** having transman.

"Hey, Charles! I won't be back." His friend yells out before Continuing to eat the face off Of the young Latino he had met. "Ok! I guess I can get home.. Somehow..." He mumbles to himself, signaling to the Bartender that he wanted to order Something off menu. He pays no attention to the trans Woman who sits down beside him. "I'll have a watermelon sangria, please." he requests softly, but confidently. The lady by him chuckles, "Watermelon? That's odd." Her voice is rich with flavor, And humor. "It is odd. But so am I." He mumbles. "It seems that way, doesn't it? Well, at least now I can call you Melon Rather than ask your name!" "A rather odd nickname for an odd person." And so their conversation continued. It became all the more lively once 'Melon' had had a couple rounds. Both drunk and desperate, they Kiss passionately in the gay bar, Paying no heed to the others Yelling "Get a room!" Roaming hands. Stumbling up stairs. Drunken giggles. Broken speech. "You're so beautiful." He whispers. Skin against skin, Burning hot,   Both mad with desire. Panting. Groaning. Moaning. Ecstasy. It's late at night. They manage to call A taxi, and go home. Home to Melon's apartment. The next morning was spent Drinking ****** Mary's and Making an account of what Happened the night before. That, and more *** Hot, ****** *** Passionate, lively And loving *** Charles sits up in his bed. He feels something sticky. "Oh, that's disgusting!" ****** *** indeed. He stands up to clean himself Off in the bathroom, but he Hears the shower running. "Did I get laid last night?" He peeps into the shower And sees the woman from His dream. "Eva?" He asks. "Who else would it be?" "Why are you in my apartment?" Charles exclaims. Eva turns and Raises an eyebrow at him. "I live here, Melon." "Since when? We hooked Up just last night!" "Darlin', we've been married for 4 years!"

Someone asked me the other day Could I ever date a Transgender girl I think they expected a No, or Maybe But a different answer popped out of my mouth A special friend came to mind A secret love I have but mine alone, as she speaks only French She is transgender, and date her I would I dream of her nightly dreams I can't put into words We trans people speak of masks Of who we tried to be before Lying, acting, pretending to be male With the woman we have always been Hidden behind masks, confined to a closet But I know for some it is also a mask The attempts to look female and pass To hide the body we hate To be more the woman that we imagine us to be But isn't that also a mask The clothes and makeup, lipstick and wigs Trying to make our bodies Match who we are in our minds This secret love I have, the intimate dreams I want to take off all the masks The wigs the makeup the clothes and shoes I want to be with the person beneath all of the masks That's who I dream of holding, that's who I long to love by Lj Mark
