BILATERAL
Everest Looney
Running on concrete with bare feet
And hearing the rocks clatter behind.
Singing loud and proud in a new tongue
And listening to a song under a new name.
I finally got the right ID
Just yesterday.
Looking at pictures of a long lost friend
And wishing smiles were a little brighter.
Leaning over in a dark baggy shirt
And seeing a shadow of a stranger behind.
I fit my old clothes
Just yesterday.
Dancing under two crescent moons
And letting the pine needles pierce skin.
Sharing tales of battles unknown
And feeling the wind blow through hair.
I had my first birthday
Just yesterday.

Originally growing up in California, Everest Looney is a trans artist and writer who has been taking classes at Portland Community College for three years now. He likes to explore the idea of what it is to be human and non-human, all while sharing his love for life. Music and emotions also play a big role in the end mood of all his works. As a full-time student with a job, free time is hard to come by, but is often spent reading or making origami.
