An Anomaly
I am the ubiquitous one
Internally
I watched from the sidelines
As
People called people like me
“Confused”
How so exactly is it?
Huh?
If I venture out of
Darkness
God forbid I get kicked
Out
My mind is in clout
As
There is not that many
Of
People similar to me, am
I
A “monster” for being like
This?
On top of being a
POC
I might get harassed tremendously
Oh…
No sufficient funds to assist
Me
In this odyssey of my
Sexuality
Was it my gracious destiny
To
Be the one – an anomaly?
