Coming Out Valentine

Gayness is not only
the exception to the rule
it is the reversal of the rule
so strong a desire to be
its honest self it turns
and goes the other way
even when we don’t
want it to because
of what’s baked in
that final decision made
in the design slash
engineering departments
but not until certain
aesthetic pre-conditions
have been met and replicated
think how many bodies
we will occupy just
over the course of this
one evening after childhood
