Dykish

Dykish–
Like that denim jacket you love to wear,
Like your bare freckled face in winter.
I’m a demon in disguise,
You shouldn’t have to taint your mouth
With a slur as bad as I am.

Closely–
І could hold you, make you mine,
Live out a fairytale and lie.
Lie to me, tell me I’m pretty,
Call me your girlfriend-femme-butch-dyke
Or your dykish queer friend
You only call at night.

Tear me–
Like you wear and tear your denim jacket,
Punch me, kick me, I needn’t feel my best.
Praise me for quitting,
Then go smell my coffin nailed hands.
I am nothing but my name,
A dykish name you will forget.
