For Frank
For Frank,
My friend, who never judged my gayness
My brokenness, or heritage
Or country, colour, language
Who is the prettiest on Soup ;)
(Apart from me, of course)
Who loves beauty in all its forms
My friend who knows of hardship
Just like I do and survived and thrives
Who speaks in capitals without yelling.
My friend, who is proud of me
And makes me smile
Whose poems are on my fave list
Let them Frank, don't get angry
Let their pathetic opinion slide
Across your back to your...
And shrug it off
Shake that pretty head of yours
And smile :)
