every mispronunciation,
every ma'am,
every look down at my chest
is a reminder that you'll
never see me for who i am
just what i present to be.

i wish i could take your
beliefs and feed them to the wolves
watching as they tear through the flesh
of your negative habits.

perhaps i'm overreacting ?
no, i'm trying myself goddammit.
