Wrote this last november when I was trying to come out to people....

See Me

I am neither boy nor girl

Man nor woman

Adult nor child

But you know me

I am the one sitting in the corner

Crying until my heart bleeds

The one treated as an unwanted foreigner

Knowing nothing of what I need

You continue on in your self righteous religion

And you know me

You hate me for my darkness

My weight using wasted space

Truth can not make you recognize

The hurt you bring when you give chase

Fight me off, tooth and nail

You think you know me

I am neither boy nor girl

Skin makes us who we are

See threw the skin and tissue

See to my insides and push them away

See straight down to my being

And then you may know me

DOnt worry bout how things read, how the meter is or the rhyme. Most of what I do is free verse (keeping meter in time and rhyme bends my brain too much). Many will find meanings here that you didnt think were there but all input is welcome and appreciated.

Poetry is so much more open to the reader's interpretation than prose.

That is why I am so glad that I finally learned how to connect to my heart and write poetry.

You can reach people on so many levels - this was very good.

Love ya,

Sally

Thank you. :) It means a lot to have people that understand and maybe even *like* my randomness spewed on the paper... hehe

I agree, meter and rhyme are just to much effort to worry about! :lol:

Thanks Sally. I've read some of your poetry before and I was floored! It is amazing, then for you to tell me this was good... :o hehe

You can reach a lot of people in a lot of different ways with poetry. I love it!

Thanks!

for me when the muse strikes (kinda sounds like a song) i find I have to write. It is the same with my connection to the spirit realm, when they have something to say.. I need to pay attention and write what is given.

Its kinda the same for me, but once and a while I'll just want to write and I'll just put words on paper until it makes sense.. Thats what happened here.. I wanted something that I could show people when I came out so I wrote until it made sense. Fortunatly it only took one rough draft then the final copy! Rarely does that happen!

But sometimes the mood (or muse hehe) hits me and I have to grab my pen and paper to get it out...

Just depends!

give me chance my love SS for driving my feeling with that lovely

poetry please:

I like that poetry; words and feeling spreading inside it,,

my sweetie SS,

and I hope you are now coming out from,pains coming from

people's snaring eyes on you,,

that happen for all and making us feeling so sad,but my love

the only solution what I believe are:

-looking kind for those people,what live in dark corner

of misunderstanding humanity secrets and needs.

- and why on earth we need to take care for the at this point,,

I know; Sally one time said (If I am understanding her very well),

that coming because people seeking scaling(good or bad) from another people looking to them,,

that are fully wrong,

what is making people great or another is only behave principles

what they believe and work with it.

not money,beauty,body,power,star life,,all that are extra vanity,,

when all that finish one day, will remain behave only,

when I am at grave one day what I will take with me(big nothing)

from all that except how I behave with all.any how that what i believe

honey I don't know about another friends here.

by that pains of give people chance to controlling our life by pains,,

many of us looking for end them selves,that so hard beyond my thinking,,

we love people but not live to be as people like,bad or good,,

by that we will gain our peace,freedom as will as love

people.

love you

      I had that going on with my last two partners who were 20 years older than me.  One of them looked older for her age as well.  I remember a couple times being in the grocery store a decade ago and having people ask "can I help you ladies with something?" and then I'd turn around with my red beard.  Well before I started transitioning, but my partner knew I was trans back then.   I struggle with this as well.  My music and political career can have a masculine edge to it that I don't like.  It's been really frustrating lately.  I don't like pushing myself on others or telling people what to do.  I've been running a website for 25 years and have virtually never tried to promote it or even look at any analytics.  I don't want to push it on anyone.  I put what I have on it and make it publicly available.  It's part of my production process.  It keeps me sane and if someone else can find it useful, then I'm happy to share.

      I'm curious, but then if I am true to myself, I have a hard time being in crowds.  I love hearing great music, but being in an audience is such a turnoff for me that I don't go to concerts or bars.  I'm just very much a producer.  I actually like doing the dishes more than going to concerts because it's an active thing.

      My therapist is trying a new tact. I've named my self protection self that ssays not eating or too much exercise because when I starting because oftrauma my protective self started and also at the time the name Shay came to me and is now part of my name.  It's not like having a split personality, just my primative self protection who is always there to help me. My therapist has Shay, me and him working as a team to assure her that I am safe and to start changing her role in my life so I protect me by eating right and exercising to maintain a heathy body. It is helping a little but we just started this a few weeks ago.

      Good morning, everyone!!   Yesterday was lawn mower battery day. I've been nursing the battery on my Zero Turn mower for two weeks. It gave up the ghost when I stopped to refuel yesterday so I had to run over to the local shop to get a new one. And forgot my wallet so I had to drive home and back again.   Then, I was using the garden tractor with the bagger to pick up the clippings. I cut about 7 acres so it took me awhile. When I was done, I went to refuel it and, of course, it wouldn't start when I'd finished putting in the gas. I'm hoping it was just some corrosion on the cables - cleaned them up, gave it a quick charge and it started right up. We'll see if it will hold a charge now or turn out like the Zero Turn.   House cleaning day today. And then I'm going to just relax outside for a bit and enjoy one more warm day before our temps drop and rain comes in for the weekend.   Enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!!

      Striking your head against the wall, you can lose 150 calories an hour. Blue color attracts mosquitoes in two times more than any other. Most toilet paper sold for home use in France is pink. In 2014, a missing woman on a vacation in Iceland was found when it was discovered that she was in the search party looking for herself. In 2005, Mark Zuckerberg unsuccessfully tried to sell Facebook for $75 million. Back then it was called TheFacebook. Strawberries can also be white or yellow, and some can even taste like pineapples! The Boston Marathon didn’t allow female runners until 1972. Banks have therapists known as ‘wealth psychologist’ who help ultra-rich clients, who are unable to mentally cope with their immense wealth.

      I attend a medical day-centre in Texas for needed medical services. It's religious oriented, so not gender fluid friendly. I of course dress 100% in female attire yet androgynous to keep both "them happy", and I really don't mind.    I of course am imposed rules that no other participant is bound by. The examples are the allowed size of my backpack, or how many visits per day I can see my Representative payee.  The gender neutral restroom use was a compromise that all off us have agreed to.  Not being able to wear tanks tops or shorts that aren't "Bermuda length" are other examples of where I am restricted more than any other participant. "Bra talk" is strictly forbidden, even though their doctor and occupational therapist were the ones that told me I needed support due to neck pain.    I found myself being reprimanded by staff three times yesterday for very petty details, and they have constantly pushed for me to remove myself from the program voluntarily. I am of course someone not welcomed in the program, but federal discrimination laws prevent them from removing me. They instead are just making life miserable with the hopes that I will leave on my own.
