gypsy moth.
I pull down
the long
winding
zipper,
down my
opaque
chest I
travel,
releasing
thousands
of gypsy
moths.

sometimes
my soul feels
colossus, so tall
& overgrown in this
body i’m supposed
to call home.

Carrie
The closet always had its mysteries
The choices come and always tease
In your mind carry a subconscious mutiny
To twist that masculinity
Was it the skirts his father wore
That pleated kilt the sporrans draw
The flare and bounce as on he strode
Shapely legs with flesh exposed
For he would dress the same as that
With some femininity attached
Jean Harlow look that sultry vamp
Disguised always with a Philip Marlowe mac
Dark alleys where the clans all meet
A world of intrigue lies and cheats
A...

Moves to Shock
There are two ways this could go
when the measure has been resolved
of whether nature moves to shock
or boredom is the end result
shame is assumed without proof
humiliation only found
with a result that mortifies
death by variety that fills a life
while reality says otherwise
tedium becomes the norm
apathy fills the void
when existence is switched about
the latter is the sad result
embarrassment put aside
in diversity the truth is known
comparisons become too trite.

Pure Ascetic
Perhaps one day I’ll join the rest
beauties placed upon the stage
embodying nature’s tendency
to demonstrate the female grace
between the age of young to old
each so comely in their way
time will dictate consequence
though forward movement will occur
a legacy that all must face
to embody their own display
a statement made by design
as age descends with every year
perhaps one day I’ll join the rest
with myself as the result
creating style along the way
pure ascetic holding sway.

this
cocoon is worn
awaiting to be
born,
yearning to soar
with visions in
ultraviolet.

Can you
imagine
your nose being constantly
rubbed in the dirt,
like a dog being
punished?
can you fathom
your existence being
a mix-up joke,
where laughter
feels like nails clogging
up your throat?
have you ever
felt like a hostage
in your own home,
knowing no escape
or any safe space to
pack up & go?

misg(end)er.
Wake up (dead name)
How are you (dead name)
Have a good day (dead name)
How was work (dead name)
I love you (dead name)
Take care (dead name)
Nothing’s wrong with you (dead name)
What’s that on your arms? (dead name)
What’s that on your legs? (dead name)
What’s that on your chest? (dead name)
Why do you do this? (dead name)
I thought you stopped this? (dead name)
This breaks my heart (dead name)
How are you (dead name)

Please Pardon
Please pardon if I celebrate
the lack of gender in the main
penning works without reference
to the bits of natal flesh
each has their own to flit about
these are separate from the wish
to find comfort outside of self
even as the pundits howl
staid purity in their eyes
will not stain my lurid prose
when all embrace because of lust
based on desire and not control
emotions reign without regard
to the strictures of righteousness
they’re all based on dogma’s call
to build tall walls between pure love ...
