I pushed her away
she always came back
Go away girl
I’m not who you are...

April is Poetry Month so here’s a piece inspired by ‘In an Old Book’ by CP Cavafy. A Greek poet who wrote during very conservative times about his attraction to men.
The amazing @roguebatoratl.bsky.social posed for me.

Like Saint John of the Cross,
I chased him through the Burrough
That mahogany night,
All the prayers heard from windows
On this godforsaken street,
And I nearly collapsed
But spirited forward (Yes, I did!) ...

When I Was Straight, by Julie Marie Wade
I did not love women as I do now.
I loved them with my eyes closed, my back turned.
I loved them silent, & startled, & shy.

I lie in the dark, listening to a pulse of sound,
letters in an unknown alphabet spelling out words
that come and go through a sorrowful labyrinth.

'Don’t Call Me A Daddy' Don’t call me Daddy Is it the lines I bear upon my skin? The scars and blemishes The signs of wear and tear Do they speak to you And say ‘oh he’s mature’ Is it the grey that now mingles When my follicles grow The peppered silver With which you would count my years And what do they say? ‘Oh, he’ll look after me’
No, don’t call me Daddy I am not he That would dominate your submissiveness And tell you ‘I bet you like that’ As I contort you into origami This skin This flesh This soul Heavy, tired, for sure But don’t call me Daddy For on the inside I’m still waiting to be born.
A poem as an aging gay.

It is striking, is it not,
the silence
of those you love
who do not love like you?

Trauma typing turned full on narrative poetry. Still a work in progress but I feel it has some merit.
I feel better and that's all that matters

“We both are talents who paint our eyebrows.
Unconventional as I am,
I want to possess the promised heart of a beautiful woman like you.”
This poem was written in the 1800s by the Wú Zǎo, describing her love for another woman, Qīng Lín.
