a boy in a dress by Nanette Bellmana boy in a dress
tells me he's sick of hearing
how I bleed.
granted, it's been hit or miss
but for 12 years, I've bled.
a boy in a dress
with pink panties on
preaches dedication.
comparing vanity to motherhood.
tell me his beauty is more
than a mother's love for her child.
a boy in a dress
needs to choke
on his spoonful of ignorance
because without
bleeding uteruses
and "negligent" mother's
he'd have no 15 minutes. 11/15/2007 Author's Note: chris crocker. grr.

Posted by Ryan Nardi on 06/09/08 at 03:23 PM Thought provoking indeed. The middle stanza especially begs to be considered patiently. A real rawness here that works well. |
