lyrics

The Transvestite With Flowers In Her Hair

A grandma peeing in the ocean,
a college bro coming home from class
popping open a cool bag of potato chips,
crickets on ecstasy,
the transvestite with flowers in her hair.

Everything to me
can be beautiful
it seems
when I try
to put my finger on
how or why
the beauty
begins to lessen.

The truest beauty is in not knowing.
The purest beauty comes from the mystery.
The beauty is beyond being beautiful.

A grandpa brushing his teeth,
a soccer mom pulling over
to order a hot fudge sundae,
birds high on crystal meth,
the marvelous transvestite wearing a friendship bracelet.

Fear not yourself,
perfect people.

Everyone is beautiful! This poem is another zinger from the pleasing "You Are Not A Normal Human Being" available at www.virgograypress.com
