The Daily Travesty

Abinary

Abinary means

That you aren’t male or female…

Off to a good start?

Agender

Cancel me, but why

Doesn’t this invalidate

The whole “spectrum” thing?

Androgyne

Like “androgynous”

But for those who want to sound

Like a fashion brand

Androgynous

Gender-neutral look

And an old Greek baby name

Meaning “Poorly Dressed”

Aporagender

Wikipedia

Didn’t even dignify

This with its own page

Who dress up and act like girls,

Unlike baklava.

Let I take this time to say

You need to relax

If you are allergic or

Can define “Bakla”

I’m just thinking how

If you take the hyphens out

Do these genders change?

When you wield a sex

In both hands, unlike the guys

With a shield in one

Walkin’ down the street.

The kind I don’t like to meet.

I don’t believe you.

You have private parts

Other people cannot mock,

But only one set.

Of winning at sports
