~ ~ ~ ~ come one ~ come all ~ ~ ~ ~

seagulls and bearded clams
sea-ponies, hermit crabs
stoners and moaners and pirates and punks

weedy-haired merpersons
seedy-shared compersion
sandiest dandies and pansies and drunks

that wicked bitch sandy blew rage on our beach
queers everywhere getting bashed in the streets

AIDS is NOT OVER yet
comment threads shred
misogyny’s cancerous
gender is dead

suicide, platitudes, ex-roommates cut us
untender call-outs and glances on buses

patriarchs, misanthropes, shit bosses, HAY
feel it ~ release it ~ and wash it away

CALLING ALL CREATURES OF THE NIGHT ! ! !!!! !!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!

to a peaceful gathering of epic dimensions
in celebration of queer interdependence
under the light of the moon

show up.
bring the party with you.
