Ameliorated my aura.
Blessed to still be. -
Compassionate to others, who tried to destroy me.
Diligent on working on, what's been working on me.
Empathetic, to the trials of life that molded me.
Fantasizing, about the life that's owed to me.
Glamorizing, all of the goals I have.
Hardworking and humorous
I represent, on my behalf.
Joyful, even when it's cloudy with rain.
Kind, even when I relived the pain.
Lovable, even though they didn't love me.
Mythical, even though they couldn't see me.
Nourishing, every little part of me.
Open to, all the blessings bestowed on me.
Passionate, about the path I decided to take.
Quintessential.
Resilient, about the moves I make.
Sophisticated; they tried to take away my class.
Threw me away, like I, was nothing but trash.
Unbreakable. You can't keep a good woman down!
Victorious; self love, is what I found!
Warmhearted; tried to make my heart turn cold.
Xuberant; living out loud and bold!
Youthful; just a little girl from the start and found,
Zen; I will NEVER compromise my art!

Letter to our Queer & Trans Youth
Hey, you. I thought I’d start this letter by telling you a little about myself, just so you know who you’re dealing with. I’m an emotional dad, father to three amazing kids who we met through the foster care system, and whose presence in our lives has really transformed my sense of responsibility to the communities that surround us. The connections we’ve made with one another, with our extended families, and with the communities where we live and look for belonging have catapulted us into this whirlwind of emotional tumult which, while not easy by any stretch of the measure, has also been remarkably healing. I realize ours is really only a one-sided chosen family, since our kids didn’t get to choose to live here, but I’d like to think that they did choose to let us love them, which allowed them to grow to love us. And I think that’s where I want to go with this letter- to a place where you can find belonging and healing- even if the pathway there may be peppered with some emotional tumult.
