The poem “Gender That Confirms” is about the support I’ve received for my transgendered side. While I have very slowly paced myself, for reasons, my female allies have been wonderful.

Listen to poem:

Affection of the female kind just the friendship finally found is the salve for the questing heart coming from a former self without confusion that the meek is the state for woman’s grace just as fierce with wit that cuts in defense of worldly strikes the communal behind a veil a front exacted against the pain allowing entry of the type once existing on the far side now entranced by support once estranged before the turn to the gender that confirms affection from the female kind.
