STORY STARTER
What would a poem about a non-binary person's daily life look like?
Pride Collection 22:Non binary.
Filled out a sheet at the doctors office
Check a box
Male_
Female_
But neither are correct
Neither suit me
Neither fit
Why isn’t there another option
Even an other box would suffice
Got misgendered at the coffee shop
Should I cut my hair?
Why add sir or ma’am
When you can just say have a good day
There was some positive
Though small at that
A kid smiled
Said they liked my hat
I went to get clothes
Got odd looks
in every department
Mens, Womens, Clearance
Went to unlock my apartment
My neighbor called me by my name
Asked my pronouns
Used them right
And went on their way
Ordered a pin on amazon
Has my pronouns
Easy to see
Maybe someone will realize
I’m just trying to be me
