gender fucking

My hair.
Flipped front-to-back,
Combed side-to-side,
Lifted up
and snipped.

To liberate myself
or
the very least

accomplish good ol'
gender-fucking
and fuck the gender out
of you.

You should try it sometime.

Don't get me wrong- I really do
care about how I look,
just as much as you.

And, whether you see me
as chinese, black, or latina
straight-arrowed,
cross-eyed queer,
or les-bian

because you mold my figure
   -me-
to be who I do not want to be.

I'm only a fool to be so concerned
with what you think.

I grin.
My new look reflects
from your dilated pupils
of a glazed wide-eye stare.
It makes me gay.

Personally, I do not like
my new look.
But I like you.

You will ask, "Did you get a new haircut?"
And I will say, "No, it's not a new haircut-
it's my new
performance art piece."
