Smash Patriarchy
by Alex S. Johnson aka Kandy Fontaine 

I do not fit into your
gender mold 

Jelly roll and I resist
your prurient
caliper and

Rapier/rapist display of
dominance cos

It ain't wit
Bitch

It's somethin'
but it ain't nothin' but

Guys with carved 
pecs boasting street brawl
you can find a lot of these
dudes in gay 

Porn...same ass-thetic
pros-thetic

Pitiful cos-play at
Gangsta but you

Wouldn't last a 
second in my cells

Honey oh you 
see from shining sea to
port on air

Build-a-Bear
the shimmer of tinfoil 
crackle of the glass dick

Holding? Wanting to hold?
got something for me?

But ain't it all
rilly just the 
Same

Bull
Shit

Dominance front
dominance front it's a 

Put-on 
like 

Pasty pallid eyed
glam drag
Queens of the Stoned Rage

Doing the walk of 
Shame crawling back to their
monster Kafka insect

Hives to die a 
thousand
thousand 

Megadeths my 
darlings huffing Raid
again I See...
