It’s like taking off
a straight jacket
slowly
These bindings of
gender

OK, here's what you're supposed to see in this poem, we authors so rarely talk out loud --
the first line is about speed, taking off, the emotional explosion,
second line, is what you're exploding from, the straight, jacket, not one word, but two, to emphasize the straight, and the jacket, something you are wearing on the outside to look like a straight person,
slowly, slowly, don't we all approach the closet door slowly, is it secret, is it safe?
Peeking out
these bindings of gender, these were a loose jacket, I could've taking it off like a jet plane, taking off, but, slowly, these are bindings, I've been bound, and you must need to remove bindings slowly, your limbs are asleep, they're tingly, slowly,
now, you're removing these bindings of gender
a straight jacket
slowly
These bindings of
gender

people have so many secrets
so many traumas
I did my job coming out ... and I'm still coming out, as the new words arise: nonbinary
we think our trauma is so special, our own trauma,
but it is so ordinary

What if I met me? Sudden copy, we're both me, we're both us, no difference, but, suddenly two of us facing each other,
I think I'd want to kiss me, massage me, pleasure me,
can't masturbate me, or fuck me, we're both locked,
-----
snuggles, playing with each other's holes, but, -- would we talk? maybe not, no need, just do to each other what we've always wanted to do to ourselves,
-----
But I've always been right here, Bug, I've always been right here, and so have you,
