Why
Do you look
At me
That way.
In my choosing
To walk
The sinister path
And not
The dexter one.
Which is
Often ignored
By people.
Exploring
The inner realms
Of my fractal soul
And gender
As a transwoman.
Although
People have wondered
If my journey was
An ambidextrous one.
For many times
I have been seen
As blurring
Gender lines.
Not understanding
Why I must choose
Either hand
In conforming
To your orthodoxy
Of gender.
When
At times
I feel
Neither
Left
Nor right handed.
Just me
A soul
Who learning
From both hands.
