Hands interlocking 
A smile that holds no hidden shame
A lake in a world on fire
Waves whispering promises of a future
Where even here
I am found...

There was something inside him
Screaming to be let out
Screaming to be seen
There was something inside him
But then he understood what it was
And she let it out...

[Composed after yet another news headline 
of a pastor advocating death to all LGBTQ people]


Christians, Christians,
full of Christian love
If there was a god he'd smash
them flat from up above....

It's hard to smile in Frisco, with feces on the ground
    Equally difficult in Chicago, where crime abounds downtown

  But there's always 'sunny Florida,' from which leftists are fleeing
    No more socialists, LGBTQ-advocates, or folks on sidewalks peeing...

I've noticed,
As our economic and politically empowered
too consistently lead with their Right,
All us non-elite women
people of color
LGBTQ
and indigenous people
predictably lean to our Left

To find a space
where we feel safer,
and a sacred place
where we might imagine
our lives actually matter....

In South Carolina, walking to his car outside of
Brew's Bar peacefully,
twenty year old Sean William Kennedy,
was punched in the face and died that day,
simply because he was gay.

Us members of such a cruel human race,
shouldn't take other's humanity-
The LGBTQ community has a right 
to shared space. ~...

Since when did you care?
about politics 
and gay rights 
and me.
since when were you loud? 
and made yourself proud? 
of yourself and your work and me. 
since when were you gay? 
but still not to say…
that you are 
but I've seen the rainbows hidden 
in your room 
and your thoughts 
and your eyes 
for me....

If your Straight White God's
powers of love
are not omnipotent enough
to include Queer love
then S/He is too weak
diluted
polluted

For Me
at my humane best
as an integral part
of EarthTribe We

Curiously forgiving all
Straight White idolatries
of dark fascist powers
against green and fertile
integrity....

Suduko, Bollywood, LOL, IDK
Racino, tighty-whities, LGBTQ
Labradoodle, stevia, BFF
Terms and words unheard of in the seventies
Or eighties
Or nineties
But no one back in the day would have guessed
A convicted felon who says he wants to be a dictator
Would be elected to the Presidency of the USA either
We now live in La La Land...

"I'm not a boy", my child announces.
"I've always been a girl."
And without hesitation I say
"That's wonderful!
I can curl you hair
and we'll plan a celebration 
with flounces and flair -
go shopping for a pretty dress.
I guess you'll need some makeup
and nail polish too..."
She said
"Don't try to make me just like you."...

I wish you were a boy. 
The ones my mother talks about with a forkful of mole poblano. 
Singing me a fantasy of wedding cake and children. 

Her passion threads a life of regret for me.
Sewing me up like a street vendors maría doll. 
Finishing me off with a gown and a man. 
How cruel....

I am a rainbow kid
I take pride in who I am
And embrace the crown as I am
These colors I embrace,
This rainbow, running through my blood stream.
They call it debased,
But, I call it redeemed.
My identity I embrace,
Out of the ordinary,
I've Created my own special place.
Showing a full display to the world,
Freely,
Unapologetic,
And delightedly...

Never so scared
Chains on my chest
Can't hear me
Help
Help

I am exposed
I will be hurt
So obvious
So vulnerable

Panicking
Shutting down
Can't shut down
Have to go onstage
Can't go onstage
Shutting down
Can't shut down
Have to go onstage
Can't go onstage
Shutting down

One hour twenty minutes left
Please help
Please help
I'm stuck

I need my binder
I left it at home...

The meaning of home
Isn't a house
Locked in a dome
Quiet as a mouse

For they say,
"Love isn't love unless it's right"
Every day
Every night

Home for me
Is following my heart
But I can't see
Where to start

Even if
It's running through my veins
I feel stiff
Feel that pain

It must be running through my veins
Oh the pain
Never gain
But home just isn't home without you

The generation gap is wider 
    than it's ever been
  Not enamored of LGBTQ
    you never will fit in

  And then there's good old BLM
    the family it would scrap
  and replace it with a tribal system
    ~ What a bunch of crap! 

  The young still can't get past Hilary  
    They venerate Ms. Abrams, Stacy
  As for me, I think I'll buy a ticket to the past
    where I can jeer and boo John Gacy...

Racism's harm, we must redress,
Love and friendship, a balm's caress.
Coronavirus, a world held tight,
Hope shines through with guiding light.

Adult trials, family's embrace,
LGBTQ, a tapestry of grace.
Nature's beauty, love's sweet pain,
Humor's touch, life's joy regained.

Death's gentle shadow, love lives on,
Teens to adults, growth's journey drawn.
In this diverse, complex sphere,
We stand united, conquering fear....

Just maybe
Maybe I can understand 
Why you say these things 
Is it to flood my mind 
To bring me tears
To stress me out
To cause me pain 
To make me ashamed 
Of who I am today
Or to make who I am
Simply go away

Why else would you say
That you’re grieving me
I’m still by your side
I’m still here
I’m still me
I haven’t left
And I’m not planning on leaving 
So why
Why would you say that you grieve me
When all I want to do
Is be who I’m meant to be...

Use of Situational Analysis

Powerful people may be found in palaces,
Causing problems resulting in a paralysis;
Around we revolve;
Conflicts can solve;
Answers are found using situational analysis.

We have many retired military officers and
NCO's. They should be used as a panel to
receive their opinions and suggestions
regarding how to solve problems like
LGBTQ for example and how to
successfully adjust to President Trump.

PS. Uncertainty is a big problem....

In quiet corners where no one sees,
Two hearts find solace, though love's not free.
A gentle touch, a fleeting smile,
In a world that deems their love a trial.

Their love, a secret they must protect,
From judging eyes and harsh neglect.
They hold each other in the dark,
Wishing the world would warm to their spark.

They dream of days without disguise,
Where love can live beneath open skies.
But for now, they whisper and wait,
Holding tight to a love the world won't celebrate....
