The poem is beautiful, and I've taken your previous answer to another commenter as a general permission, and linked to it on my own LJ.
I also have a question for you, if you want to answer.
Transgender is something that I'm only tring to educate myself about now, so there is a lot I'm ignorant of. I've seen your tweet -- "It's the Transgender Day of Remembrance, and we don't want it appropriated - it would be kind of nice if the rest of you didn't ignore it." A tweet would have been too short for my question (and context), so I came here with it... What are you thinking about when you say "appropriated"? By whom/how? (Not by cis people taking part, evidently, since you encourage us to do so. So I'm confused.)
My thanks if you want to answer -- and even if you don't, my thanks for poking me.
