As everyday begins, brings the wierdo parade, and me
Marching, in all pride for myself, I represent, every lezzo on earth
Put in hell, oppressed, told they dont exist, judged, I thought
Myself blessed, being lez, toward the refinery of lashings
On the way cars were galleys, full mast on the freeway,
Passed pirate gazes, magpies on sidelines, pied angels, cheered
me on, shifting wind blew me further, carried me
Along, and I approached the haunted parade, held breath
Not daring to glance at a desk, I walked past creaking
Echoes in there, could not look, or ask: I haunted your ghostship
Shadows down passageways, all illusions, voices, and you, love,
Near, too precious to expose to risk, too lovely to look at
I sat down daydreaming there, waiting for love, eyes on heaven
Above and seemed I was suspended, a bird under heaven
I was the soil, the earth, the root pride of life: an anchor
Which grew suspended, eternal, in blessing, in pride: into wing
And seemed for some reason more bizarre than your
Love even (for you are my reality) that the wierdo illusion
Is lost, disappears on a freeway, old galley, forgotten in pride,
And I’m love dreaming near you, soft, and every day light as air
