Chances

Chances

by Elissa Rosenthal

As the light in the stars glow bright,

our bright ones turn dim.

People of all colors,

now all look the same.

It does not matter your background.

We see the stars glimmer bright,

and forget that they are us.

For we are them in further form,

even though we are still a mess.

Organized chaos surrounds everything in this universe,

keeping the balance while creating chances.

Chances to expand and become more than,

who we are.

More than manufactured manikins.

Let Us Bee Together

Let Us Bee Together

By Elissa Rosenthal

 

Let us bee together.

Has horrible as that pun may be,

let us join together,

so others may see.

How there are people,

like you and I,

who do not call themselves straight or gay-

but bi.

I know they exist,

because so do I.

This sexuality is how I identify.

I am not greedy,

a slut,

or a hiding gay.

I am only built this way.

Please try to understand that I exist,

even if you are a pessimist.

I have heard the rumors,

the generalized tales,

on how every bi woman,

is a straight one who's kissed a female.

I have heard how, 

if you are bi,

that you are a lesbian,

who feels a need to lie. 

I am telling you,

right hear on this day,

I am neither straight or gay.

I am a bi woman,

today and any other day.

 

Happy Bi Visibility Day Everyone! I hope you are having a great day and weekend!

Emerald Colored Glasses

Emerald Colored Glasses

By: Elissa Rosenthal

Evergreen shakes flutter through my bones.

Glasses of better grasses, of better homes,

complete my vision of being alone.

Fill my cup with troll-like tales of wine.

Fairy tales that glimmer the divine,

push the thought they will never be mine.

Closed eyes filled with hope, ever green,

will never keep a conscience for the clean.

Merry Meet

Merry Meet 

By Elissa Rosenthal

Come with me to tea today,

so we can merry meet.

Tell our thoughts and stories,

over what we eat.

Sing songs and silly tales,

over our quiet meal.

Let time of smiling friends,

be here for none to steal.

We not agree on all,

past-times and things.

However, we can agree,

to give this friendship wings.

The People's Mirror

 The People's Mirror 

By Elissa Rosenthal

Awing midnight surrounds my small being. 

Universal twinkles comfort my eyes.

Sluggish waters become all people's mirror;

including Luna sharing her glimmer. 

Peer into the All People's Mirror,

perhaps it will show your beauty as clear.
