The Respect that She Deserves

She never asked for, let alone demanded…

To be treated fairly and appropriately as she navigated the complex world of interpersonal relationships…

Well, that would just be rude…

Or so she had been taught.

Experience has shaped her.

Age and wisdom have offered new growth and added perspectives.

Forged in life’s fires she emerges with the proper amount of sass, and the ability to command in all situations the respect that she deserves.

A Lack of Respect

Oh Southern crush name sake of my long ago distant past…

How many times must I kill you before you finally rest in peace?

Would that enlightenment comes to those who seek to resurrect you.

Forgive them for they know not what they do.

Or do they?

Sometimes people are intentionally cruel and willfully ignorant

and I have no use for either.

For our trans brothers and sisters and anyone who has experienced this brand of disrespect in regards to a legal name change.
