Other Things That Start With "Q"

My queerness is me --

The part I love beyond it

All -- everything.

Where Were You on National Coming Out Day?

Love, the world is yours!

Sashay out of that closet --

Werk -- You have arrived.

Harvey Milk Approves This Message

In San Francisco,

A righteous revolt took place,

We tasted Freedom.

Visible - We Are Not Ashamed of Who We Are

The bricks and glasses,

The chic and vogue ensembles,

Marsha, Sylvia.

The Awakening: A Casting Aside of that Fictitious Self

Speak revolution,

Hacker, Lorde, Rich, Bishop, Stein.

Follow the Rebels.
