I too, minority

---

I do not have the advantages of a woman.

I do not have breasts to compare to mounds of dirt or
a womb which ties me to mother-Earth, or
battered cheeks from bruising men, or
dreams of leaving home again

but bear with me, if you will
for I too, have words
and desires yet to
be fulfilled.
