Pronouns exist to describe me
But I am embodied in the endocrine
rhythms of the river
Inclusive in every hand that reaches
out to the beat of the march
I cannot be explained away as only
transgender
Or fluid as my tears
I am beyond meaning
Once I was in grave doubt
But I knew time would apprehend the moment
Yes I swim in water
I have removed
To be free
Ask Cis and the queer folk who answer me
