    Just a GirlBoy!

    Why was I born as a boy?
    I never asked to be anyone's playtoy.
    Would you leave your only daughter home alone?
    Would she have a house key at age 10 of her own?
    Are boys safer and better able to handle abuse/isolation?
    Yes this little boy knew she was really a girl,
    but would it have made any difference?
    Would it hurt less if I was born female?
    Would I have been less lonely as a latch key kid had I not been male?
    Why wasn't I protected? Why was I so scarred?
    I wish I could have told someone back then about being molested.
    I wish my parents could have known the daughter they neglected.
    Am I to believe it was God's will or that I was born mentally ill?
    Did God want me to be hurt? Was I born male or female or perhaps just designed to be daddy's little girlboy?
    I guess I may never know, but I do believe that God, whatever He/She is, did not want me to be a playtoy for anybody.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
