Hidden behind the letters page
of a conservative rag
withered by decades of hate
each letter a lame excuse
to reject the existence of difference
with accusations of being
in your face
because another ‘tranny’ got dressed this morning
‘the book says it is wrong’
then read another fucking book
to remind you it’s okay
to be alive
‘but what about the children’
I say, children don’t hate
until
adults poison their minds
so, what about the children
damaged
demonized
their lives destroyed by your hate
what about them???
