Eat, Drink, And Be Mary! .... [gender 'Change'; Humor/Humour; 'In The News'] Poem by Bri Edwards

If “Caitlyn” Jenner can do it, then so can I.
She’s stopped being “Bruce” …. after sixty years …. of a “lie”.
So now I'LL no longer be, on PH, “Bri”; I’ll be “Mary” …..,
though [unless I shave my arms & legs] I’ll still be “Hairy”.

But in tribute to my years as Bri, and for some clarity,
I’ll call myself Mary-aka-Bri, but I beg: “Give NO …. charity! ”

Of course my pockets are NOT full of cash; I’m only Mary.
Unlike Caitlyn, my pockets are empty of cash …., VERY.
So no surgery I’m planning and I’ll wear no designer clothes.
I’ll still stand to pee, but my wife owns dresses; I may wear THOSE.

I’ll probably shave my beard every day; I’ve not done THAT in years.
And I may wear lip gloss and some mascara, AND hang rings … from my ears.
