“There was this rhetoric that said of me: I’m fixed; I’m cured. I think that’s an American thing, where they like to tie everything up in the Hollywood ending.”

— Alan Cummings The Irish Times recently

One of my best friends overseas turned out to  be gay. I may have been stupid about it but believe many homosexuals are in great pain and don’t believe they usually want to hurt other people at all. I think it is difficult because men can be friends for a while for real but then have to leave each other because one wants to be gay with the other.

Two poems

“Midnight” by yours truly

Midnight

Unquiet

Quite a riot

Just might fight it.

“Never” by yours truly

You were never born!

Perhaps our ties should be shorn.

You should not have watched porn.

This is sworn.
