The way I talk
How I look
How I sing
The way breath
How I dress
How I wear my hair
The way I love
Who I love
Who loves me
The color of my skin
The color of my hair
The color of my car
The color of my clothes
The color of my flag
The history of my people
The history of your people
The history of their people
The history of those people
The job I do
The job you do
The vote I cast
Who my Mother is
Who my Father is
Who my Grandmother is
Who my Grandfather is
Who my wife is
Who my husband is
Who my lover is
The one I pray to
The one I don't pray to
So I stood up and said
NO!
