Each of the mini-essays I’m publishing for the month of June are part of a creative challenge to share joy during Pride. You can find out more in the link below. You can even participate, if you’d like!
Wild Lion*esses Pride from Jay
14. Fierce
Fierce laughter a light guffaw? or a hearty chuckle Fierce words on a page or screen shouted down the street on a phone screen words we reclaim *whispering* *did he really just say that?* Being queer isn’t a playground taunt anymore
Your trans friend,
Robin
Hell yes.
I think the genius of this piece is it invites you to restructure with each reading. To see things in a new way. The idea that we reclaim ourselves and being Queer, that it is no longer a playground taunt speak so deeply and simply to the heart of the matter, that now today it is Life and Death. Profoundly moving. Thank you for sharing.
