why can’t we just

Be


without a mold

labels

classifications

like we’re rocks

lifeless in the dirt

picked up and thrown

or painted by those who feel

as if what a rock Is

isn’t enough


don’t degrade me

I’m the same as you:

Human


your anatomy does not

determine your role


skin is not wallpaper


sexuality is not something you pick

from a menu like a sandwich


where you’re from is not

where you have gone

or where you are going


tomorrow’s ideas

are not bound by today’s


all things were together

then mind came and arranged them.
