I Ride Shotgun for Love


I ride shotgun for love 
In the passenger seat
Pride this year is a simple date
In another town
Like on another planet
Our ship is the Love Bubble
Road trip of romance

Gay couple holding hands
Talking gently & standing close
There's no parade or celebration
Yet here we are
A day's vacation

We strut around because we're proud
We don't know any better 
Lunch & matinee
Under your shirt is lingerie
In my smile is honesty
In our hearts Ecstasy
I got your back
I ride shotgun
On the drive back

We talk about sex & romance
How we feel today
Every love song on the radio
Is about us
I play the air drums
That truck driver was hot
You can get over now

I don't nap I stay awake
I anticipate I help navigate
Back home already
To enjoy your company
A day of gay pride
Tonight I ride

I Ride Shotgun for Love.

We won't be a secret anymore

Our gay love is a secret Paradoxically There are no secrets between us Not supposed to be The more fiercely hidden The more outrageous are The chances we take We've taken some big ones As if we want to get caught We do. Don't we? The bigger the secret The more it seeks exposure At first it hides in the closet Then it hikes the forest Where no one can see us Then it strolls in the park Then lunch at a busy restaurant Holding hands in public Who we are is a secret But our gay love is obvious We may be on the down low I think everybody knows Our love is for the ages There are no secrets between us And one day We won't be a secret  You won't feel shame or guilt After taking all those chances Instead pride & hope will fill your heart We have no secrets between us And some day  We won't be a secret anymore. Theme Song for this Poem "Ready to Take a Chance again" Barry Manilow Foul Play 1978

Looking For Someone

Image
I'm looking for someone somewhere gay Not just anybody  I'm looking for you Someone who Will tell me the dreaded truth Even when it Hurts like an abscessed tooth  While it makes me cry Break it down slow & easy  Decorum mixed with sleazy  Slang hanging with S.A.T. words Wow! Kapow! You know how  It's what I'm looking for  Dynamited to the core Washed up on the rocky shore  Dry me off. Give me sunburn  Someone whose head will turn When I toss a lustful look I throw a playful kiss You catch it with your lips Cruising for someone somewhere gay I'm not just looking  I'm looking for you. ************* Theme Song for this Poem  Somebody Just Like You -- Teena Marie
