what have we lost

[sass]

in pre-Catholic Philippines
gender crossing is a spiritual act
now, it is highly sexualized

we were priestesses,
gateways to the realm of
the divine and beyond;

now, we are fucking ladyboys,
exploited by someone's hard on

what have we lost, for what?
let's bring the magic back!

[brian56]

It need not be sexualised
Some are lucky, and find love
and are still like priestesses
guarding the gateways to the realm
of love and happiness

Some, are not so lucky
And become trade in the porn
an industry of exploitation and abuse
just for a quick buck or two
and usually for someone else

and, if in Philippines, ah, both
they have little rights
as a government, ruled by a church
denies both the protection of rights
Sadly that country is in the Un
but refuses to adopt the standard charter
of human rights!

nice one sass.
