pensar a solas
me angustia
y me hace mal
pero a veces solo quiero
sentarme en el pollete
y mirar
canciones de Keane
algo que ayude a acabar
un par de beats por allí
y otros cuantos silencios
para terminar
en la Sierra de la verdad
vengo a desconectar
de palabras y más allá
vacía
salgo a la Luna a volar
un vacío intermitente
separa las horas inertes
de disparos en la frente
me empiezan a preocupar
me angustian
y me hacen mal
~
(dis)appointed
ouuu dead end street
nadie nunca me dijo
"no te metas por ahí"
y ahora no puedo salir
hay luces de colores
un sofá y muchas flores
but before it does begin
the party seems to be over
apetece y me desplomo
decúbito prono
I'm convenient, babe, 'cause
I'm an organ donor
te apetece y emborronas
te resulta y te acomodas
~
(cuando conducían los demás)
confiada y somnolienta,
iba de noche escuchando
el jingle de una emisora
en el asiento de atrás:
las noticias de Onda Cero,
cabeceras de programas
apoyadas en ventanas,
y un murmullo de nostalgia
a falsa seguridad
casi como en otra vida,
entre luces de ciudad
y espigas de caja rural
uno se quiere aferrar
al recuerdo que se tiene
porque nunca va a cambiar
soñando, que no durmiendo,
con que el viaje no se acaba
y los pitidos de la Ser...
me devuelvan a mi cama.
imagino que ahora creo
que todo ese tiempo fue mío,
que el camino se estiraba
juguetoso entre recuerdos,
para convertirte en uno
y asi poder recrearse
cuando ya no estemos juntos
y se se-
paren los mundos

Rambling thoughts on alleged transphobia and the censorship of neo-language
- Being a social construct, gender is taught and instilled since birth, based on the arbitrariness of our genitalia. This is a fundamental truth. Gender is NOT a feeling and it DOES NOT fluctuate depending on the moment. Gender is how one was raised and is all about the internalised ideas.
- On the other hand, sex is NOT a choice. Let’s get this clear once and for all: it is a tangible, material reality. Also, sex is binary – despite all the idle, ill-defined attempts to refer to intersexuality as a justified claim that it isn’t. In fact, it’s somewhat offensive to see how a congenital anomaly in the reproductive organs is used as an excuse to uphold their untenable assertions. It’s more than self-evident that this has got not to do with the transgender movement.
Whether
we like it or not, socially, we are read as a normative (wo)man or as a faulty (wo)man.
That is, basically, how everything we know works within this gender-based framework. Strictly speaking, it could be
stated that we all suffer from gender dysphoria on a spectrum, because no-one fully
conforms to every single aspect of the stereotypical division of genders. Nobody
meets these expectations, from neither the feminine nor the masculine
perspective. To show a certain degree of non-compliance regarding gender therefore
becomes, at the very least, and understandable output. This being said, could
genital reassignment really be a decent approach to this?
Ok, I get it. It might
well work as a temporary patch. But, is it even a good thing for those
experiencing it? I have solid reasons to believe it’s not. By doing this, the
only real outcome would be the perpetuation of the gender roles, instead of
trying to defy them. It’s a losing game in which you accept that you do not adjust
to what you are supposed to, so you dissent your actual biological sex to fit a
morbid mould. What’s more, it’s not so likely to succeed being entirely ‘read’
as the gender you’d like to identify with, not even after the transition and
the hormonal treatment – so the whole problem remains for those undergoing this
medical process. Also, assuming that your disconformity will be solved once your
sexual characters change is profoundly sexist and chauvinistic, as that means ascribing
biased and simplistic stereotypes to the other sex.
The narrative of the ‘wrong’
body departs from an incorrect premise. There is no such thing as a ‘blue’ or ‘pink’
mind. Essentialisms aside, we ought to focus on gender performativity instead. Taking
into account that this dysphoria is utterly cultural, radical feminist theories
support the abolishment of gender itself, especially considering the amount of
pain that the constraints of preestablished roles bring. This, of course, requires
a much more profound change.
Beyond how you might perceive yourself, if anyone can apply this self-determination of gender at will, what are we to do with concepts like gender-violence? Just look the other way? This undeniably leads to neglecting women’s rights and intrinsically weakens the feminist agenda. It is nothing but another form of misogynist violence, and as it normally happens, targeting women. Trans women haven't had to experience any of that. So... yeah, I guess I'm fed up of having to be seen as a 'cis', 'childbearing' or 'menstruator' woman. I’m a proud TERF that, after all, supports those who feel ill-at-ease with their bodies. Mind you, only after turning 18 years old and after a fully professional psychological study that helps that person in terms of well-being. Let them be happy, never forgetting that feminism will not be able to help them in their struggle, because it is a diametrically opposed view to current queer theories that promote the reproduction of gender roles.

repentant coward
and there's this lesson
never quite to be learned
(I'm no witch)
but you know I see the future
and its yet-to-come bloopers
should've jumped into the pool
there's this knot inside my throat
knowing it could've been full
El secreto bien guardado
12/07/20
en el futuro?
reflejarán su risa,
afortunados?
ser objeto
de sus palabras?
atestiguan con paciencia
amores descordinados.

de según cómo se mire todo dependeEe
La tierra necesita tu caca
Tu estómago tiró de teta
La moraleja está bien clara
Sin adiós
Encontré mi camino en el tuyo
Lo pintaste con el derrame de tu trasero
Sí, jaja, risas
Hace tiempo también que me quedé atrás
Te perdí de vista
Se desdibujó el sendero para dejar un desierto infinito a mi alrededor
Desde allí te buscaba
con los ojos llenos de arena
Las cenizas de tu recuerdo
I wish I didn't exist
obsessed with inappropriate things
even in my sleep
a monster
never getting over
and way sicker than a zoster
a failure..
dragging chronic, severe deficiencies
with the inability of adequacy
a fraud
writhing on the floor,
suffering from the impostor syndrome
a bore
who only nods
lacking the right words
a burden
without real purpose,
lost and uncertain

not even that
(a grown-up rat)
I'm a monster
and screw things up
I'm apologetic
(like a slug)
antimagnetic
I'm a rug
not even crap

CR
the people I met
the time that I've spent
I'll never regret
the things that you said
the jokes that we shared
the words left unsaid
I'll never forget
no one quite understands
but you'll always be there

Estebanco
hay un monstruo bajo la cama
disculpa si grito:
un ogro susurra en mi almohada
me plantea un acertijo
más difícil que un sudoku
imaginarme su tipo
(seguro que no es del Opus)
más de una vez
(la verdad)
me giro a mirar
(sin parar)
es complicado
analizar el delito
me quemo la espalda
reconstruyendo los hechos

un recuerdo soterrado
cierta daga del pasado
que se clava cuando gimes
llevo un monstruo amordazado
del que nunca me he fiado
porta un mensaje cifrado
que quiere que dilucides
tu nariz en su matriz
me hace un poquito infeliz
me quedó una cicatriz
porque tú no te defines
el baile con la lombriz

whomever you think of
it seemed foolish
wanting to get over
those magical superpowers
time stopped.
time flies
with the touch of fingers
I know it's stupid of me
but how I wish things
were always
what they seem to mean
