Beige pigs in long wigs
I hear her and her
cronies snorting
and laughing on
four seaters
so I went over,
leaning against
her chair like
some villain
she expects
us to become
told her i'm joining in
on the conversation,
knowing I overheard
her talking about me
her three friends look
down at the floor as
the train rolls into
London St Pancras
as she continues
to deny discussing
about me soon as
I stepped aboard
this rush hour train,
I repeat word
for...

He-She-Other
Eyeing life side eyed asphyxiated in this spotters scope
concave monocular teetering in and out of trance
Observant surveilling wretched buffoonery trending
cyclic magnified in this inauspicious life dance
Shrewd to learn reasoning in intricate depths of people
evolved judgemental life views secluded
Laid in the cut calm as a fly on the textured wall
gender-neutral bathroom festering larvae included
Planted trigger behaviors become iridescently apparent
in blank jungle silence of blossoming juvenile minds
Passive watching random demonic on...

This morning
I read a
poem about
nails tapping
into coffins
and I think
about how
many of my
siblings
hear the
same nails
tapping in
their lives
across a
pond
right
now.

The Cracks Are Showing
I have a cracked hand mirror
(Tis not a mirror for looking at my hands!)
It still reflects everything
I bought it in a charity shop
About six years ago
It obviously wasn't cracked back then!
Ive used this hand mirror approximately
One thousand five hundred times!
Yet rarely seen my face in it
But helps me see
Everything i need to
It's not my eyes
That dilate!

Ode to a little black coat
My arms grew
out of your seams
they cross over
my sides like they
could almost break
I pace concrete sweating
into another day, knowing
eight years of hard wear
is carrying a shipwreck
you were more than
sharp edges, lapels,
silk lining, a scruffy
collar raised up
you soaked up tears
waiting for boys in blue,
said never mind to snot
marks they left over
your shoulders
as they leaned
on you like a pillow,
keeping them warm
with fire you had ...

Wake Up And Smell The Breeze
Some reality, is really ironic
the truth is left on the brink
shadows and twilights emerge
there's only vanity to summarize
Poetry praising ego and libido
inked whims melt in the alter ego
they only smell of dirty stench
an empty soul will never quench
Self-centered attention stressed
the hopes for escaping repressed
introvert, shut in from reality
opposed symptoms of double personality
Insomnia and hallucinating...

What if wonderland
was the underbelly
of the world alice
thought they knew
the rabbit hole
being the spine
they fell through,
alice watches
a pocketwatch
ticking inside
their ribcage
as tea slowly
pumps around
their blue china
thread veins,
further down
alice greets
a posse of
whispering
flower buds
that bloom slowly
singing golden
afternoon in
their stomach,
spinning around
as their blue and
white clothes
puff inside ...

Please write me down with your eyes
note the smile I gift
walking across these
white chlorine tiles,
did you believe I was broken
lost in strange text fonts
covered in hateful lies
does my irony upset you
as my scars dance naked
in broad daylight?
does my small frame offend you
as my body ripples water we
happen to share and glide
does my laughter slice
through your pupils
measured in media
sized ignorance?
please write me down
with your eyes,
my scars will
bare a smile
back at you.

Foibles
My foibles
Occurred
When i had
Four balls
But once
I was reduced
To two balls
I lost
My foibles!

A letter to the non-binary community
I didn't need
to see a title
or press my ears
listening out for feet
patting down stone
upon arrival,
don't you see?
it's laced through
each of our bones
without a single
seam on show
so please, don't
go disappearing
too many people
try doing this for
their entire lives
even I tried on
a few occasions,
but we know better
than this don't we
dearest human?
this is exactly who
you were always
meant to be and ...

People prepare meals before a body dies
but never prepare
recipes when a body
begins to blossom.

On Gender
when somebody
i know gives birth
to a child i never
buy a pink card
or blue card that
says girl or a boy
stereotypes that
should be gone
& are out-dated
i choose a green
card or a rainbow
hurray it's a baby
sex doesn't say
anything about
gender identity
yet still there is
hatred, assaults
ridicule, violence
i pray for a world
where everyone is
accepted, welcome
& where transphobia
is a thing from the past
