Bio


I was born in Cambridge Mass Feb. 15 1950, At birth I was declared a boy. Doctors do make mistakes, they are only human ! I struggled through childhood , and adolescence with a lot to trauma and ridicule. I graduated from Somerville high in Mass, in 1969, Yes the summer of 69 was the happiest days of my life! After a brutal argument with my father over my manhood, or lack of any. I joined the army and went to Vietnam. The Goddess of my Higher power delivered me back to the USA, with a few miner injuries and a new scar on my soul. Through the middle 70's I was a trannie . sex worker, drug addict and alcoholic, On Aug 18, 1978 I got married and shortly after begin working at the post office in Boston. The relationship some how produced three beautiful children, After years of alcohol abuse and suicide attempts , In 1996 I Quiet all of the above. I got somber and found my soul , I stopped living as depressed miserable man . All the neutering in the world could not make a man out of me. . I followed my true nature and started a long, hard road to become the woman I am today. I moved to Fla On Feb 1st to start a new life, near the gulf beaches that ,I love so much. I love dancing , writing poetry ,and short stories. One last thing I am a single lesbian seeking a kindred spirit to share the wonder of mother earth and Father sky with.

Blessed Be; Janice Josephine Carney

A POEM FOR GENDER CRASH’S FIRST ANNIVERSARY!

LOVE IS GENDER BLIND!


Love is gender blind
 When I was young I fell in love
  With a boy.
When I was young
   I fell in love with a girl.
When I was young, I was told
That, love is color blind!
When I was young, I fell for
   A dark skinned boy.
When I was young, I fell
   For a light skinned girl.
Love is color blind, I was told!
No one told me, that
Love is gender Blind!
OH! Said I. If love is color blind then
I can fall in love with a dark skinned Boy!
No! They said, Love is not gender blind.
Love is colorblind!
But, Said, I with the wisdom of a child.
Love is gender blind, also and I kissed a boy
Years passed, love has come and gone
My gender has changed,
Still I know Love is both gender and colorblind.
