Every morning when i wake up I apply my rainbow gear. First my almost famous patch pants, the rainbow belt tightened to hold them up. Next is the wristband I clean everyweek, placed on my left wrist. The red always away from my body out of habit. After that my wooden necklace is secured, brown from the back of my dirty neck. Finally my beat up sharpie shoes, the rainbow laces most promenent. I do not wear my rainbow gear as a fashion statement. I do not wear it to be purposefully tacky. I wear my rainbow gear as a sign to let people know they are not alone. I wear it to tell the world, 'I'm here, Fuckin' deal with it.'
