It's Time

Dear Whisper,

It's time to change

because we don't whisper anymore.

We shout and yell.

We laugh and tell. 

Dear Fair and Lovely,

It's time to change

because we don't want to be fair and lovely anymore.

From white to brown to black and everything in between.
We want to flaunt our shades.

We want to be bold and brave.

Dear Gender Categories,

It's time to change your only male and female checkboxes

to a long list

because now we come in mixtures and blends.
We feel good about ourselves.
We feel great in ourselves.
