You taunt and you tease,
You judge me with ease.

I'm stereotyped and placed,
All judged on my face.

The color and ink on my skin,
Slowly drawing you in.

You don't know me, you don't know my life.
You and your assumptions are causing me strife.

It's my choice to stick a piece of metal in my flesh,
I like it, I'm not going to second guess.

This is my life,
My story,
My tale to be told.

And I'm gonna tell the way it is until
I grow grey and old.
Recently told my friends that I was going to get piercing for christmas, I don't actually have any piercings, I asked them what they thought.
The response I got was "No don't do it you'll look like a fag", this sparked a very long and unneeded argument of sorts between me and about 6 of my friends, one of which was outright saying just about every bad thing under the sun about me getting one piercing. I wouldn't be able to get a job, girls and people in general wouldn't like me, and calling me a "fag".
The last bit was what annoyed me the most because I am bi-curious (not sure which way to swing yet), and I said to him "would it really matter that much if I was gay?"
to which he responded "Yes actually, it would"
And I realized how close minded and judgmental people can be about the smallest things, it sickens me.


Sorry about this, probably not a good piece of writing to go with a terrible rant. I thank you for reading this.
