What She Said

Clouds in Mexico for two days
And she's had enough.

Told me my name
Belonged on a girl--in so many words.

I don't mind it--the girls in Berkeley
Don't mind it,

But this is NM
On a ranch, and I'm the second

'Noel,' she's met, 'I mean, the second
Who is a man.'

She's dressed in pants,
Long sleeves buttoned up to the neck.

I have long hair and I do yoga,
I'm not even mad.

She said it so
'Matter of fact,' I actually loved it,

Someone who speaks their mind
Plainly--as it is.

As I am,
She is--human in the U.S.
