Those who move beyond the most blatant aspect of what I do will then understand
What I am trying to say.







-Marilyn Manson


if she's not a she

and she's not a he

then what do you suppose

she ought to be?

she looks like a she

dressed like a he

her body and mind

do not agree

should she dress like a he

but act like a she

and make people question

what they see?

Should she dress like a she

and act like a she

ahnd be what society

wants her to be?

she wants acceptance

that is her plea

but she should just be

totally free

they may not understand

they may not agree

but it doesn't matter

if they don't see

she's not a she

and she's not a he

but leave them alone

leave the kid be

they're jut a person

like you or me

let them just live

label free  


The author's comments:

it's okay not to conform and label yourself. Just be you. That's all that matters. With labels come pressure and expectations. Sometimes it's okay just to not care.
