Thank you so saying so many nice things about my writing! And yeah, if you’re anything but white and cis/het, high school was hell. I’m so glad I’m in college now.

Aislinn Wilson said:
I really love the nod to the nonbinary nature of people as a whole, and this is overall so well written and honest. I think that this is something that a lot of cisgender straight people will never fully understand, but I hope they\'ll try.
It doesn\'t make me miss highschool, that\'s for sure.

a love letter to my mustache
Aislinn Wilson said:
Every time I search an LGBT term on this site, you seem to come up, but I can\'t complain. I\'m glad to see your poetry again. Though not that long ago, I feel like I got to see a piece that really illustrated your progression as a writer over time.
This is really beautiful, and as always so well written.

i was a teenage lesbian
Aislinn Wilson said:
the title got me in the mindset of the song \"I Was A Teenage Anarchist\", and while I do really enjoy that song what I read was so much more vulnerable and honest and tender and visceral and better written than my preconceptions. Beautiful poem.

You\'re writing style is really unlike any I\'ve ever seen before, and it\'s so very vivid and fluid.

You\'re an amazing writer. This is tragic, but it\'s so well told and written. You\'re clearly someone of great talent

FredPeyer said:
Completely agree with Lawless. While I feel comfortable in my body, I do not regard it as something important. It is just a shell, to be left behind, while the real me will be going on. I do feel for you and do hope your shots and surgery will work out ok. And I do hope that you will be happy once you look the way you feel.

I feel, whether we are any one of LGBT, or straight, or whatever we are, that we need to accept the body we have. We\'ve been given it.
Sometimes I think - Would I do this or that to someone else\'s body? And the answer is no.

Absolutely brilliant. And such a touching poem. The idea of coming out being like becoming a new person is definitely something i can understand and to see it written up like this is brilliant!

Very well written, Boaz! Agree with James, it sounds like a story of death and re-incarnation.

FredPeyer said:
Beautifully written, with so much emotion and truth. I do hope the world will finally wake up and accept everybody no matter who or what they are. I am only a \'lefty\', but a few hundred years ago I would probably have been burned at the stake!

This was so well written and I commend you for getting it out and sharing it with us. So many people don\'t understand mental illness. I\'m so sorry you went through all that and your mother didn\'t understand! Very touching story

FredPeyer said:
Boaz, great write about your mustache. I understand that in your case it was something you did not want, whereas in my case I let it grow in my mid-twenties and still have it.

Boaz, you hit the nail right on the head! Nobody REALLY wants to die. They want the pain to go away and think that there is no other way. And they are definitely NOT bad people!!!
Thank you for a very thoughtful poem that should maybe be put up in every high-school and hospital ward.

No answers, but writing is better than ODing IMO. You get to argue with the responders and that\'s always fun.
Actually, you get to have responders, and that
