Virtue is relative at best, there's nothing worse than a sunset when your driving due West.

In any marginalized community, whether people identify themselves or not affects us all.

A little bird told me that jumping is easy and the falling is fun, right up until you hit sidewalk shivering and stunned.

I love my country, By which I mean, I am indebted joyfully, To all the people throughout its history, Who have fought the government to make right, Where so many cunning sons and daughters, Our foremothers and forefathers, Came singing through slaughter, Came through hell and high water, So that we could stand here, And behold breathlessly the sight, How a raging river of tears, Cut a grand canyon of light... Why can't all decent men and women, Call themselves feminists? Out of respect, For those who fought for this...

And I was shocked, To see the mistakes of each generation, Will just fade like a radio station, If you drive out of range...

Don't treat me like I am something that happened to you.

They see me as a symbol, and not a human being. That way they can kill me, say it’s not murder it’s a metaphor.
