Poem: HEARTBREAK

Heartbreak.
Physically threatened by the straight masses.
Shunned by every other community.
Do we fit? Can we fit?

Pigeonholed. Stereotyped.

Labeled as
PERVERT. WHORE. DEVIANT.

Call the police! Pack the bags!
There’s a TRANSVESTITE living in my neighborhood.

A cruel society jumping to the wrong conclusions once again.
True self? ACCESS DENIED.

Working hard. Supporting our families.
We struggle for recognition
And RESPECT.

We are not freaks of nature for we are HUMAN.

Hi all,

Lorna: =D> =D> =D>

"For we are human, for we are human, for we are human..." How many times do you think we'll have to chant this before the Faceless Crowd hears the melody?

Great stuff, girl!

Love,
CJ

She is in a fairy-tale contented with beauty poise
and elegance this lassie is a maiden in
blessedness; she in cheeriness and yes elation
approaches womanly practices in manners
feminine is of course elated, she will with help
raise the spirits of her thoughts to fir fill
her desires as she fancies her self a girl.
