Fight me, bite me

Thursday 26 July 2018 / poetry

Fighting anti-trans lesbians
Pretending we hate them
Projecting their transphobia thus
When really they hate us

Moving in herds
Anti-trans sheep
Into our spaces they creep
To claim we threaten theirs

They bend our words
Warp
Distort
Warp
Distort
Transform and twist
Wording bent
Selective quotation
Misrepresent

Fight me
Bite me
I know you'll never like me

But I love me
I love my trans siblings
I love all the radical non-conformists changing the world
With visions of a boundless euphoric utopia
Today we've gotta cope with ya... transphobia
But one day it will be our... cornucopia
