Work Text:

I can’t fit

       Not even a bit

Into binary 

        Restrictive 

Roles.

 

I am not

        Or ever will be

A beautiful

        Enchanting 

Woman

        Or 

A handsome

        Charismatic 

Man.

 

I could not

       Or will not

                        Act 

What I am 

                        Not

 

Not 

      “Lady”

                       Claire

Not 

      “Sir”

                       James

Just

      Ember

 

All that I’ve ever

      Had 

                     Been

All that I’ll

     Ever 

                     Be.  

 

                               Neither,                  Mom.
