W 5 n H

What do I want (to say today)
Who do I play with (you hooray)
When will I start (right now ok)
Why do I like to (wear lingerie)
Where is the line (tween straight and gay)
How can society (block the way)

Who has the right (to dictate my dress)
When will we be (free of this mess)
Why must I (conform to impress)
Where can I go (to find more or less)
How to be happy (a caring caress)
What do I do (to move no to a yes)

When will it (stop being so bleak)
Why do I need (to be called a freak)
Where is the love (all of us seek)
How about now (or later this week)
What do you think (am I up the creek)
Who said the (heirs are the meek)

Why is our world (so stuck in the past)
Where is the promise (of peace at last)
How come our future (is fading so fast)
What shall we do (to avoid the blast)
Who will start change (and topple the caste)
When I say now (for I am aghast)

Where in this space (is the word we all need)
How come we ignore it (for the sake of greed)
What will we do when (the babies bleed)
Who will we turn to (to plant the seed)
When will someone step up (to do the deed)
Why wont people listen (harken take heed)

How many more years can we (postpone the days)
What my great peers (are the myriad ways)
Who do you want (to direct the plays)
When all of us actors (know we are but rays)
Why we are all ayes (yet we vote the nays)
Where it is due I beg of you (give glory and praise)
