The Undefined Ones

Location

Gender and sexuality are completely undefinable.

Because when you define you label,

And when you label you create cages.

And a cage will turn a man into a monster.

Not a monster with mile long talongs and gooey green eyes,

But a monster with the power of speech.

A monster with a mouth is far worse than a beast with a sword,

Because that monster can cut through the soul.

It can slash through your spirit,

and destroy your entire being.

These monsters don’t see uniqueness,

They see a set of genitals.

They see a girl and a boy,

But nothing more.

They don’t realize the magic,

In all forms of love.

When a human loves a human,

True beauty is created.

And it’s the beautiful things that get painted and photographed,

It’s the beautiful things that will be burned into memory.

So simmer down monsters,

I would say to take a step back and ponder total equality,

But your cage is too small to fit a concept so wonderful.
