Akin to Karen

A lesbian transwoman,

fortunate enough

to come from a nonreligious,

supportive family,

who complains

when she hears

queer survivors

share stories about

the damage they have endured

at the hands of their

toxic religious families

and communities

is akin to

a wealthy white woman,

born into money,

who refuses to listen to

one more news report

about the experiences

of poor young women of color

who were sold into sex trafficking

and viciously victimized

as children

because it's too annoying

for her to hear

their accounts

of the abuse.
