unlocked today is the
transformation:
from a once child in the underground
being instructed of
who or what to love,
to a grown up mind soaring
with confidence and singing
with a voice that echoes;
for the tabloids tell us
we can only choose pink or blue,
and he’s for she — you’re a taboo.
so keep raising your flags,
splash these walls with colors
and fairy dusts,
and write your whole name in caps
because whatever letter it begins,
you belong in the alphabet
