Why must fags police ourselves for the comfort of the masses.
If we don’t live out loud we’ll soon be headed for the gasses.
Why can’t we all claim space to share…the dissident & the normie?
Does your faith require that you shun or, at least, deter me?
All that anybody wants is life lived free & life lived safe.
So, why does space that I take up cause a starchy collar’s chafe?
I use words to defend myself when I fear your violent hate.
Why should my small life depend on your deterministic fate?
What is the message left then for our children to look up to…
That we should bow to majority & ostracize the few?
