Queer-ies.

Queer-ies.

A Poem by RibhyMay
"

Wait, she likes what?

"

Hi, I’m Ribh,

I’m a girl, and 16,

I like trains, but not cars,

I like rain, I like stars,

I like my hair in big bouncy curls

 

I also forgot to mention that I like girls.

 

Oh, now I see,

You’re more uncomfortable than me,

Even though I’M on the stage,

Admitting I like trains,

Did a girl just tell strangers she’s gay?

Well it’s more complicated than that, I have to say

 

Firstly, I’m not gay, I  do like boys too

And if you’re offended, why does it concern you?

When girls like boys, they can talk all they like,

About his hair, his abs and his motorbike,

But if I say “oh, I think I fancy her”

Apparently I’m causing an unnecessary stir,

 

And to the people who use “that’s so gay”

Please do shut up, and get out of my way,

I don’t have enough time on this earth to begin to argue

About how bloody stupid that statement makes you

So every time you may use that expression of hate

I’ll turn round and say “oh that’s SO straight..”

 

Hi, I’m Ribh

I’m a girl, and 16

I like boys, I like girls,

There are more important things in the world,

To be offended by than who I may like,

 

I hope you enjoyed this, thank you , goodnight.

Hehe... A lot of broken teeth behind me. (I broke them. lol) Lots of getting judged, and attacked, abused... Always returned a punch, I don't like to owe people anything. Still, I was hated for being who I am. Lol. Like others have anything to say about who I'm loving. It's strange, how they hate you for being who you are. Especially for this as they call it "illness" but hey. Don't let them box minded fools bring you down. You got talent, you got a future ahead, go straight forward :)

well written.

My pleasure.
You explained it powerfully & tactfully - you are who you are so deal with it. Too bad you have to explain at all though. Nice job. Brave.

Oh, almost forgot - very cool title with double meaning. Creative.

Gosh, thank you! My silly sense of humour coming into play there..
Fantastic. It's absolutely ridiculous that people have to "come out" at all. I love the style you use to express how pointless those "issues" are.
