my speaking 
out

is not meant to annihilate your voice

your pretense at inclusion

however 
does

i do not wish to question the safe spaces
you create

you have an investment in the creation

a good one
several good ones

do not pretend that these safe spaces are always welcoming
of me
him and her as well

but we need you to exist and to try 
just be careful not to get 

absorbed
into
the glory

of speaking for us
