Bear with me here…

Bear with me here…


Bearing two X chromosomes
Entitles me to bear children
Married to an XY
With rights to bear arms

Bearing with each other
We barely scrape by
Life is good
But sometimes just barely

XY gets chummy
With XX at work
When confronted with
Bare-faced truth
XY bears the blame
Bares his soul
I bare my teeth
I bear the burden
Contemplate burial
Of self or XX
But life goes on...
