There was a young man from Kent
Who couldn't give a fig about being bent.
Some thought him a crook,
Some thought that he had a good outlook,
And so on it went.

There once was a Lois from Trent
One year, on vacation she went
They found her quite dead
A big hole in her head
It seems she went down on Clark Kent

BEALE STREET

The dream is vague
And all confused
By dice and women
And jazz and booze

The dream is vague
Without a name
Yet warm and wavering
And soft as a flame

The loss
Of the dream
Leaves nothing
The same

- Langston Hughes

I have no dreams that I like.

Poems are dreams
Dreamt up by poets.

I am not gay - a poem

I am not gay
If I may say

I almost had a girlfriend last summer
But she chose to be with some drummer

His ass was pearly white
So I can see her delight

He also had a marvelous bulge
So who am I to be her judge

But another girl will come my way
Because I am not, or ever will be, gay
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

He makes fun of me
from behind his high altar.
He is a coward.
