Just now I’ve met somebody beaux,
whom I perceive to truly glow
—(oh! anxiety—oh! fitful fret!)—
Somemany beaux (just now I’ve met!)

has flicked a spark of gaiety
O’! Fitful fret! O’ Anxiety!
for outfits worn—For, mask and mark
of gaiety has flicked a spark

to illumine a free soul born 
for mask and mark, for outfits worn,
and who’d begun “woman”.—Hu(man?):
A free soul

Ribbit

Froggy went a courtin',
"Ribbit," he did sing,
altho' singing weren't his thing,
more like the punchline to a joke,
'Please don't smoke or I might croak.'
In the deep end of the pond
true love was his goal,
and by the dawn help to spawn
a few more tadpole souls.
Hopped on to a water lily
where he espied
a fine-looking froggy filly,
and in her

Premium MemberHenry Dresses in Drag to Paint Like Grandma

Henry was not a good painter at all
Until he channeled his Grandmother Gall
She made him dress in an imaginative way
Wearing her clothes and a hairbow gray

Henry’s paintings were suddenly very good
He began wearing Grandma’s sweatshirt and hood
So much better! His spirit guide said, guiding his hand.
He painted great but was the laugh of the land.

For

Premium MemberDrag Queen Theatrics

A drag queen caused quite a disruption
with her latest drag show production.
While she sang with aplomb,
the full show was a bomb.
That's why she's called Eva Destruction.

At the Elks Club, the men blow a gasket
when they see the act for the Grand Banquet.
Her singing is so fine
and her dance is divine.
She's a drag queen: Helena Handbasket.

Drag them with you

They took and took
Never looking to see if there would be anything left
That fire that once shown so bright 
Nothing but a husk of an ember
Yet they continue to try taking
Nothing left but ashes 
Still they take but now they choke
I’m nothing but dust now
But they choke
They cry
As tears run from their eyes

It seems they

Jolted

This is the saddest day of my life,
But the day dosen't know that, the sky is so blue and the sunshine so bright.

No one looks and nobody cares as I stumble my way through the hours,
Everything just continuously drags,
I don't eat I don't drink I am just here.

I fear the coming night and the dreams

Gravitational Drag

The store is a low-level spaceship
in a starless lot.
The sparsely parked cars
have leagues of loneliness between them.
No one comes or goes they merely slipstream
through a personal invisibility.

Beyond the gliding glow
of glass doors
the anchorless roam
between the high stacked
and glitter wrapped.

Anyone that matters in the daylight
is not here,
Then he sees her,
moons slung from each ear,
she with the

Funny/Bawdy Limerick

Spoiled Milk

The milk man and Sue like to shag.
"The milkman sure digs me," she'd brag.
Well the milk man delivered!
And Sue sure got the shivers!
But the milk on the porch went bad.

So, that night, when Sue's husband came back,
She knew he'd surely notice the lack.
"No milk with my tea?
Oh how can this be?",
Teased the milkman,

Premium MemberWhen Long Days Drag On Me

When long days drag on me
   And my soul cries in the dark
Then I speak my prayer in sleight
   And He slips it into my jar.

Prithee – give it wings to fly up
   Beyond to the sapphire throne – 
Leaving me amidst where I am
   Yet I

Ridin' Drag

When your ride’n drag through the swelterin’ heat,
and you've bout had all the dust one-man can eat.
When the sweat’s running down from collar to boot,
just forty miles gone on a hundred-mile route.

The ass end of cattle is all you can see,
and the smell is so strong it makes your nose bleed.
When the flies are biting

Premium MemberIt's a Drag

'It's a drag,' means it's not going well
    'Queen of the drags,' one foot in hell  

  'They' preen and they prout, let it all hang out
    'We're coming after your children,' they shout*

Once upon a haven
for now a heathen waif
once unified by craft
now a lowly execrate
for loving every neighbour 
for flying a rainbow flag
for once upon a kinship 
now pariah   what a drag

Dedicated to all the poets 
who have left for safer sites.

Premium MemberMy Feeling About Drag Queens

drag queens are exhilarating, exciting, expressive, enthusiastic
Their dexterous delightful minds discern society’s truths
There is an opulent mindset that allows extemporaneous joking
They are great at improvisation, their quips often impromptu.

They live in a world I can barely understand, yet I want to.
There is an honesty about them that makes them brilliant.
Their shows are effortless, smooth, freeing,

Premium MemberMy Son, the Drag Queen

My darling son's gonna be a drag queen
   It's the easiest job he's ever seen
     He'll work local libraries
     Just like older blue faeries
   And study for law boards in between scenes
