I think I was interested in drag the moment it was introduced to me
I remember being twelve years old and not being able to sleep
In the middle of my mundane channel surf
RuPaul's Drag Race caught my attention
With its bright colors and RuPaul's cackle
I wasn't sure what I was watching, but I knew I was intrigued
Empowered
Everything that that word represents is how drag makes me feel
Also a little sexy too
Advice I would give to young black kids when it comes to
Expressing their identity is just do it, and do it wholeheartedly
Don't allow others to make you feel other
You already know that unfortunately your skin makes you stand out
So why not just lean into that
And lean into what makes you an individual
And stand up
