am i afraid? you ask.
i've spent 30 years walking with morbidity
whispering in cemeteries
drinking liquid candy of melancholy
flirting with silence as if it were melody
and you ask, am i afraid?
no, i don't think so;
i've earned the right to simply smile,
nodding at this carnival man
who now seeks to disturb me.
I am very excited about your visit to us this week. I have a gay son. I've had to put up with prejudices and funny looks and comments about my son the "sinner"! I pray that by your visit you will change the attitudes of many homophobic people. I would love to meet you. See you tommorow. G, loving mother
ReplyDeleteplease don't be afraid to know how very many young and old have been blessed by the vulnerability and strength of your performances across the years. with ongoing respect, emily style
