Challenge
Use A Metaphor To Broach An Uncomfortable Topic.
Stretch it to the limits.
transitioning
i am a struggling worm
perched on a milkweed leaf
eating and eating
until the fateful day
when i get big enough
to become the butterfly
that you won't let me become.
i'm
trapped in the wrong body
meant for more than this
i need to
metamorphize
into something
more comfortable
for me.
