Time to dip a toe in the world of Clown Quarter poetry. Specifically, a colossal work titled Everyone Is A Little Trans, by the University of Connecticut’s visiting assistant professor, Trace Peterson:
Everyone is a little enby. Everyone is a little gender-fluid.
Everyone is a little twelve-inch pianist. Everyone is a little cis.
Everyone is a little circular rubbing motion.
Everyone thinks they’re Billy Ocean.
No, wait – don’t go. There’s more.
The full, four-minute version can be experienced here.
The author of the above has “been working at the forefront of trans poetry & poetics (and queer poetry & poetics) for the past two decades.” As will doubtless be apparent.
