Where is my flag?

I have more things in common
with Frida Kahlo
than you can actually see
we both have a disability
we both like women
we both suffer from
invisibility
She was Mexican, I'm brazilian
She was an artist,
I am too
Even though a poet is not always
seen as an artist
which is just a big lie,
a really mean one
She loved a man who she could
not change, trust or agree with
I love a woman that is perfect for me
We just happen to have our periods
at the same time space
which is almost the same thing
Me and Frida would have lots to talk about
you see
We are both artists, disabled and queers
We both love long colourful skirts
We both know how it feels to
live with pain and limitations
to live in a way that no one is
very interested
to see
Where is my flag, I wonder?
Where is my disability representation at?
I don't see any, not even after
spending my entire day on Google images
trying to believe
Frida existed as a bissexual disabled woman
Way before me
And here I am standing for both of us
after what... seventy years?
