Listen.

Excuse me for interrupting;
But I have something to
Say.
Flesh, skin, bones, muscles, hair, nails,
tissue, blood, water, oxygen, scars,
Mass, pushing against the
strong 1 pounds per inch
of air

With absolutely no effort.

This is you and me;
her, and him;
him, and her;
she, and he;
he, and she;
Are all made of these same things.

Equilibrium.

We are all the same,
in a curious way,
we are all the same creature.

Hear me out, I plead you to stay,
We are all equal, in so many ways
Nevertheless,
Voices. Opinions. Rights. Wrongs.
Must still all be heard.

Acceptance, is everything,
Everything we need
But all of this is


Insufficient.
