My Five-Year-Old Brother Outed Me to Santa 9
There are few better vehicles for outing yourself as a gay-in-the-making than the Christmas list you write up for Santa. What’s on it says a lot. When I was a kid, I asked for things like watercolor sets, musical instruments and books. Hmmm.

hide me in your hollows
taste the salt that clings to me
shipwrecked in your shadows
scented by the sea
hide me in the wisdom of your thighs
ride me like a wave
chart my secret places
navigate my shores
map the ocean’s traces
lick them from my pores
dry me with delusion and desire
ride me [...]

tango: black and white and gay all over 0
“Argentine Tango is to lead and follow, to step to & fro, to turn right & left, to move together as one body.

If he asks about me, say that I have died 0
If he asks about me, trace on the ground
a cross of silence and ashes
over the impure name that afflicts me.
If he asks about me, say that I have died

the simple weather vane of a tower.
Do not tell him [...]

‘Cause I’m in love and goin’ to the dance [...]
