A Homosexual's Body
We slant and slouch,
prevaricate of limb,
relinquish wrists
to seeming limp,
allowing air to fold and press.
It's taken me so long to understand...
to feel both queer and beautiful.
To know that I don't need to prove
the simple fact of what I am.

You are unique. You are loved. You're you, just the way you are. Hopefully other people can spot a gem from miles away!
