"Strength is the nature of a trans boy huddled over kindling, lighting themselves / up into only ever embers. Sometimes I still feel like a woman, and, really, it's not so bad if I'm alone. / I don't want to live forever, but I want to live long enough to make people upset." (pg 13).
... reading this poem was a heart clench & a accelerant of restrained rage. how do you make the world -bigots- eat your own anger?
