Trans Songs - Tumblr Posts

2 years ago

to be trans is to be your own pallbearer / to carry the weight of a dead person around with you / my gender can't speak / but even if it could / it'd stay hidden in the corner of every room / trying to keep quiet anyway / learn to piece my parts together on an assembly line / learn to code a language where I am not excluded / if my gender had a pair of arms / it'd point out all the rallies I didn't get the invitation for / how in the second wave we fought for gender equality / and limited the number to two / if my gender could be sold / it wouldn't fit inside the pages of Ms. magazine / if my gender had legs, it would sprint / catch up with all the progress that feminism is making / all the FUCKING progress that / T.E.R.F. feminism is making
