    Pure femme Realness


    I strut my stuff

    Made up of

    Highlight to blind my beloveds


    So they blush at my passing

    I want to be the kind that my non-beloveds

    See at bars and think


    Is that drag?

    Who are you, really?

    Darling, I’m more than whatever you think of me.


    This makeup does itch a

    bit This hair is bothersome

    It must fade away.


    Who I am is of no consequence,

    I am just another patron in this place

    Trying to find some friends


    Just don’t call me.
