I am a quiet type – pensive, introverted, “artsy.” When Hannah Gadsby, in the comedy special Nanette (2018), said “My favorite sound in the whole world is the sound of a teacup finding its place on a saucer.” I felt that. So I don’t usually do public displays (although I do love to perform, under the right circumstances), even for things like TDoV. But, this year, I am sharing these poems as a display of resilience, of trans humanity, and of the simple joy of being alive.
Please enjoy. Here are the timestamps for quick reference:
00:00 - 05:35: Preamble
05:35 - 07:22: ”On Not Mowing the Lawn”
07:46 - 09:21: ”Wild Geese”
