An Ultimatum
An ultimatum stood at my door And greeted me so fondly To the tune of my thumping heartbeat. "Live as I seem or die as I am" The words had reverberated in my skull and rattled my bones- Sick with grief and mourning Of a life never lived, A lick of air never tasted on a tongue of a new man- Not man-soon-to-be,...

I Drank the Blood
I drank the blood. Shuffled up to the altar, pearly white shoes scraping over faded white tile dirtied by the footsteps of countless sinners. (I knew, even then, that that same grime already claimed my soul.) I accepted the golden chalice with shaking hands and brought it ever so gently to my lips. It tasted like poison, but I drank...

The Spider
In the hushed embrace of night, a weaver emerges from the shadows. With delicate grace, it spins threads of lunar albedo into a tapestry, a silent symphony of whispers. Each filament an extension of itself, an intricate dance of identity yet unspoken. As the loom of darkness deepens, this weaver labours on, tirelessly crafting connections that glisten like dew-kissed strands...

Nine Shorts - Net, Daseot, Yeoseot
Coming Out Comfort and meaning can be found In the draping of rainbow flags And the joyous stupor of marching Alongside understanding strangers. Absolved of the sin of lying, She now stands free. A new kind of love blooms within her, Big as a bright yellow sunflower And purer than Alpine snow. Anxiety Breathe in, breathe out. The crawling of the skin is real, Repelled by the way Prying...

One Sided Lover
You said I fall in love too quickly, and id have to say you're right. Sometimes I just look in her eyes, and everything feels right. To me she's like cars to a road, what the sand is to a shore, to me she's not just a person, she's much much more. I keep it as a secret, I wonder what they'd say. Its...

An Internal Dialogue of Uncertainty
Bring it up. Shove it down. Hate, accept, hate, accept, hate again. This can't be me. ...could it be? Not fully female, not fully something else. Slowly changing, never the same. She/her? I guess that's fine. They/them? Maybe sometimes. What is it? Do I want to know? When I learn the answer, will it be something impossible? Something hateful? Something I could never be? I guess...

That's the Way We Do It
We were taught that to be qu**r means to be strange, to be unlike the rest, to be different, but not in a way that would raise surprised brows or taint eyes green with jealousy. We were taught that to be qu**r means to be different in a way that would produce uneasy “oh”s or disapproving “how could that...

The Spartans
Ancient tales slashed our vineyard, We were the bloodshed of love... Cupid fleshed our hearts. Austere eyesights. Fierce catch upon your mark, Am your prey in the love arena... I escort this frugal lover. His achillean personality enchants every man, I am the residue of my manhood... Close the cishet doors, Let the cue tip-off, You will be my man besides the...
