A couple of poems by my mate Adam Lowe
VILLAGE VIEW
by Adam Lowe
We don't mind your sexuality,
just don't shove it down our throats.
Do what you like in private,
but stop it at the back of the coach.
We don't mind you holding hands
in your own clubs, in your own time,
but not here—not in front of the kids.
Keep a lid on it in front of gran,
she might feel sick, or embarrassed.
So we don't mind your sort round here,
but we'd rather you kept it quiet,
learned some decorum, when you're here
among us in our queer little village.
TOUGH LOOK
by Adam Lowe
Well then, that's how you'll move:
with purpose, with leonine strides.
You'll thatch your skin thicker
with a patchwork of diva, all Liza,
Whitney, Marilyn. You'll scare
men who fall out of Wetherspoons,
invoke platitudes from girls streaked
the colour of shoe polish. You'll
be you: a little braver, a little bigger
—but it will always sting inside.

There are Moments
by Okey Nzelu
There are moments between us
when the distance between us
is only the thickness of two t-shirts.
And if I were to lay my head upon your chest,
the ins-and-outs of your breath
I would know like my own.

"Anyone born with a mouth and a need is not innocent"
Cant remember the book I read that in....but the quote is so true.
