The dead named by their dead name
The news picks pictures you hated to display for thirty seconds while anchors detail the final few terrifying minutes of your life then cut to commercial; you were so much more than your death
You were beautiful, you were my sister—you are beautiful, you are my sister
No more victims
No more missing girls
Arm trans women
By any means, these queens are ready
This is literal
Dismantle what makes trans girls live in fear
Fuck you
I’m a woman
Suck my dick

Books for the fire
Phones for the wire
You gave them everything that they wanted like you were working for them
Impaled on the fence
No stance to understand, you keep a safe distance
Mama ain’t work every shift to be questioned by her own kid
With my sisters and me in the LTD my family barely fit
She was not to be fucked with by them crakkas that she served with
What would you do if somebody under you pulled social rank?
Would you play that shit?
Convenience convinces
God inmates creation
This is literal
Rot or riot

Rotten apples from rotten orchards
Decaying roots infected soil
False pedigree
A false decree
All existence must live in debt replacing what you stole
Is this only American
Is this an isolated problem
No tounge sheathed
Inhale the ethene
Deny their pleas
A world without you could be so serene
A world without you would be serene
Is this only American
Is this an isolated problem
You feed off of the pain pouring out of our throats
When both your hands are broke will you release your control

I cannot see a place for me
Open halls I'm an open book
Open windows a despairing look at exactly where i've let myself end up
At exactly how i let myself end up like this
Breathe easy remembering
This doesn't have to mean anything
I wrote a letter to myself
I avoided using my name
My past in plain english spelled out
Now thrown away into the flames
