Explore 5: Paris Is Burning

Find me in a crowded room

Full of cheers 

Full of tears

Full of queers

Find my heart placed 

In the center of the floor

Ready to rest in the palms

Of any queen to pick it up


Find me in their fingers

Curling

Wagging

Pointing 

Find my soul in their gestures

A middle finger to normal

Waving towards the heavens

Riding out the high


Find me in their faces

Rouge lips

Sharp brows

Beauty marks

Find me in their highlighter 

As bright as their personalities

Mimicking the stars they are

A reminder they are never invisible


You can find me 

At the ball
