Closet Calls
A Villanelle poem about a secret moment between two
I catch his gaze, his eyes locked on mine,
His growing smile reveals a secret delight.
Unspoken words, a language so divine.
"You're beautiful," he whispers, so fine,
My cheeks blush, a fire burning bright.
I catch his gaze, his eyes locked on mine.
Desires awaken, like a sweet wine,
Longing to touch, to hold him tight.
Unspoken words, a language so divine.
In this fleeting moment, love's design,
Reluctant to part, we cling with all our might.
I catch his gaze, his eyes locked on mine.
"What!?" I exclaim, lost in love's line,
Our silent pleas, a passionate rite.
Unspoken words, a language so divine.
Yet time slips away, like sands in a brine,
Leaving us yearning in the fading light.
I catch his gaze, his eyes locked on mine,
Unspoken words, a language so divine.

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
