I simply cannot
will not and
never will understand
the preoccupation with
sex that gay
men have what
is it exactly
that drives them
to make bad
decision after bad
decision and then
dare to wonder
why they can’t
find love am
I just old
or old fashioned
am I jaded
this selfish hedonism
this disappointing engorgement
of physical pleasure
will bring being
gay to its
knees and when
in interment camps
despite the oppression
this monkey business
will be seen
as just another
kink or fetish
I am turning
my back on
all of this
rooting around others
letting the animals
feed on themselves
