gay prez

Imagine a straight-acting, power bottom, named Mr. President.

It may not happen in my lifetime...but I wonder what would happen if people were forced to think about the president taking it up the butt.

What would that do to sodomy laws?

If the president were gay, would countries repeal their anti-sodomy or anti-homosexuality laws before an official visit? Doubtful...

What would happen if the world had to think of the president being "emasculated" in the white house?

What would they call his "partner"--if he had one? Not just the first gay lover, but the First Gay Lover.

What if it were a lesbian?

What if next time, a black lesbian ran for president?

Dressed in such anonymity
In such shattering effluvia
I couldn't help but notice
my shadow growing dark;
yawning in the mirror.

I wanted to ask him
how long this would this last.

I wanted him to see my potential.

Why didn't I walk down that road?

And I kept getting darker
and shinier
luminescently squatting
in a pool of my own ignorant sweat
seeping deeper and deeper
squeezing through perfectly random cracks
of sun-charred clay.
