Trans-Phobia

Are you a boy 
Or are you a girl?
Are you human
Or a mural?

Can I manipulate you
Like clay?
Can I warp your sense of logic
By the twisted thoughts I say?

Fearing what I can't explain 
Knowing what I know isn't right
Succumbing to the wave of fright 
Humanity believes is a fight

Logic dictates 
So I must anticipate 
That society won't advance 
Due to the present circumstance.
