He Wanted a Baby Boy
He wanted a baby boy
but mother brought forth
From her womb a baby-girl
Me, Me!
But to satisfy his ego
Father bought for me shorts
Shirts, coats, boots,
Those things of boys
So that I could be a boy
In virtual reality
Though born a girl
A creature of his hatred
A girl, I do not know
How to be a boy
