What's In a Name .

Mom.. I think I might be homosexual.. CALM~DOWN !.. I just said THINK !.. It's not I fear My multi~studded ear , Or that I look stunning dressed in pink . I wont complain , As I sip champagne Of my blemish~free youthful looks , Or how I enjoy the finer things in life ; Like fine art , or poetry books . NO !.. I never joined the Girl~Guides . You're being silly...patronizingly . I dont like damp But I do love camp.... 'Specially in Summer , by the sea . I like being with Brad and Christopher ; Young Lloyd is such a dear And Mourice is such a sweet lad ; Yes.. I'll always keep them near . But , deep inside my inner soul When push will come to shove . For my own part , Who has my heart , Yes !.. It's Annie I really love . But one thing that still bothers me , And will , until my dying day .... Is , when on that morn.... Yes!.. When I was born.. WHY ! !.. Did you name me GAY ??...

hahaha. I knew a guy once with the name GAYE. I think in the states it is spelled with an E on then end. LIke that makes it any less funny. Did you ever hear JOhnny Cash's A Boy Named Sue. If not, try to listen to it. Great song. THis was fun! Luv, Andrea ps Indictment of the Blight is not the villanelle I entered in the villanelle contest, but I hope I did not make a mistake entering the wrong one!

This is a very funny little write here. "Off the castle library", saith the Queen! (All I can think of is A Boy Named Sue by Johnny Cash!)
