In my Heart of Love

In my Heart of Love
I hid all my feelings
Until they exploded
Into a Love song
I wrote it

My Heart of Love rides the rollercoaster
G-forces of emotion
Whiplash deep & fast
The bridge of a Love song
I drove it

A bucking bull will Break your back
But a bronco will Take you back
We ride off into the sunset
Another Love song we don't forget
I told you 

My Heart of Love was the stage
Where I rehearsed & cursed
Now in our old age
You're my only live audience
I keep on writing & performing 
Poetry

In my Heart of Love
I hid all my feelings
Until I met you
You are my muse
This poem you inspire
And all my fire & desire
Your hand
I hold it

In my Heart of Love
You come here for a hookup
I play the songs I rehearse
Deeper & faster
You breathe & curse
You ride the rollercoaster

Bucking bull Breaks your back
Bronco of love Takes you back

In my heart with all these feelings
Stay a while for the healing
In my Heart of Love
Karaoke at the after-party
In my Heart of Love
Shake your booty & your body
In my Heart of Love
Deeper & faster
In my Heart of Love
Together forever
In my Heart of Love
Whiplash !!!
In my Heart of Love.

No gay roles for actual gays

Image
Straight actor plays a gay role. The in-depth discussion reveals strange realities.  (A) Theater & Hollywood are full of gay people. Yet somehow only straight people can be found for gay roles. James Sutton is to be commended for not expressing contempt at gay men. (B) Nostalgia for the bad times of the past. The narrative is that gay life has improved since 2007 when John Paul kissed Craig. That's a false narrative. The gay & lesbian community (LG) now includes straight people (BTQ+). So straights have taken over gay spaces & diluted their gayness. Gay bars have disappeared since European countries became Muslim. Gay life is more dangerous than ever. And straight people don't understand. They don't feel it. Also many political gays are blinded to the everyday reality of gay people. First kiss John Paul & Craig 2007.

We won't be a secret anymore

Image
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
