Marionettes
Marionettes on genders’ strings
made to dance as new offspring
by writ of birth the die was cast
setting in motion life’s circumstance
this declaration that odds prescribe
mostly right some of the time
this is no comfort for those betrayed
when assumptions rule the day
now the puppets move about
pulled by strings spun from doubt
those filaments that serve few
both watchers and marks confused
the latter must fight to know
an escape from thread’s control
when they pull against the conceived
following...

Compelled Normality
The time without the loved one
once they’re buried in the ground
demands a toil from the soul
when the self has been interned
put six feet down lest the world
do the same without reserve
with permanence born of fear
by dogma too long revered
these sentiments that massacre
deviants from the conservative
asked only to step aside
from living large against the lie
the walking dead seem to survive
in aftermath of suicide
now the days are self-deplored
compelled normality forevermore.

Monsters Wear Human Form
Survival asks for a retreat
finding shelter lest a defeat
destroy more than what’s due
when hatred is the attitude
that consensus of the crowd
now embolden to speak out loud
by the virtue of leader’s sway
breadth of humanity is betrayed
to be different is now enough
damnation granted on a whim
the result when fear compounds
confirmed wishes of the crowd
this withdrawal to survive
brings a tear to my eye
the omens state all should beware
while monsters wear human form.

Acceptance
Acceptance by friends is most kind
given they don’t know my mind
even as the questions reign
traditions felt in harsh complaint
ill intent is not the goal
as reactions come and go
when the source defies a life
expectations become a lie
those deviations from the norm
presented to a perplexed world
are only measured in this way
while self verity defines my day
the combination may instruct
by actions lived the deal is struck
acceptance offered in the storm
revelation as worlds are turned.

Fondest Wishes
If I could wake to the day
to see a body that does not betray
perception of who should stand
in the mirror at my command
the inner image brought to the front
society’s reaction would be blunt
no understanding of what should be
if fondest wishes were complete
this yearning is masked by paradox
living between the pull of poles
this appears to be the goal
treading water at cost of soul
if only dawn of day finally bring
a transformation most would regret
switching places to finally find
nirvana on the...

The Measured Size
Subtractions to the measured size
put to the body in respite
imaginations of what should be
are disproved by verity
searching for worthiness
in mirror’s view of countenance
majorities look across the fence
at verdant spreads they can’t express
those increments of number’s bane
stating size that damns the same
whether the measure's minimal
or double-digit on the frame
each desires reduction’s balm
shifting shapes in full resolve
to meet the image far beyond
reality’s capacity to respond.

Confirmed in Dress
Clothes evoke chains of decency
propriety the world desires to see
a battle that’s surely lost
when spirit rises to pay the cost
the norm embraces decorum’s plea
to seek the blanket of propriety
others reject this notion to reveal
the individual not brought to heel
they may choose to show the flesh
or present the gender felt in the breast
these lofty goals bend the rules
arousing passions that may confuse
even while the celebrants
those who face mistaken jeers
know their choice is surely blessed
with...

Mountain Heights
Lust comes in many forms
some pedestrian and others scorned
each with a root that demands
possession taken with outcomes damned
this tumult is the stomping ground
of the souls who have found
forms acquired at time of birth
deny the vision found in the heart
thus jealousy is mixed with a thirst
admiration turned to an urge
to be like that which passions seek
this metaphor of the oblique
the end result is sanity
knowledge gained when cravings peak
goals are set on mountain heights

Forget her cause she never existed.
I finally have come to terms with how I feel.
My mind is done running in circles.
I took it off repeat.
I shook hands with myself and made a deal.
Put myself in the hot seat and faced some things that have been haunting.
Things I have been longing .
But are soon to be launching.
Saying goodbye to who I was known to be is such a treat.
Who would’ve thought all this pain would’ve come to an end and taste so sweet.
I didn’t accept defeat.
In the end it’s who I was meant to be.
I’ve grown my wings and now I’m free.
From a life...

Shed a Tear
Shed a tear for the deceased
put to rest six feet deep
now the attempts are put aside
to truly live against the tide
this empty shroud of could have been
still the shell walks the earth
a husk pretending to be whole
even though the best is gone
while the others dance on graves
exclaiming perversion has been laid
put to ground as dogma states
is the way of holy grace
sharp ridicule filled with disgust
in this world that few may trust
celebrates the hollow victory
the walking dead in mimicry.

Transition
Definition: The process or a period of changing from one state or condition to another.
We all transition numerous times
It is a natural human process
transitioning from childhood into
adulthood, young to old, immature
to mature (Many men skip this)
when we transition it should
automatically be respected
we own our own meat
the choices we make
do not have to be justified
some transactions rarely happen
for instance:
Christians into compassionate Christians ...

The Closet of the Before
Exploration of the unknown
plumbing depths once concealed
was the passion of the past
shown in displays few surpassed
the cavalcade without demure
exclaimed out loud for all to hear
has fallen quiet once the task
was completed with ends to last
those changes are now internalized
known to self in full resolve
even while the world decides
to disagree with pointed knives
it's no wonder the response
a retreat from consequence
includes identity's detour
to the closet of the before.
