1You may flaunt my looseness, you knowthat I go whole weeks without, so, Iget depressed because I’m so easily distractedfrom sex. It’s not something you can keepyour mind on without losing it. 2Certain eases appeal to me more than the flowering quincesand your black pear branches dripping white petals. I’m not a pastoral type any more, I take the subwayback and forth from beds to days or bed-in-the-day-timeand if pleased am a dirty flower at the end of ragtaggingit.

Because we also make (and need) artI have a silly tradition with myself that every year, in June, I have to make a text for Medium about something LGBT+ related. I wonder sometimes if this urge is just to make a little contribution to the community, or then, to remind myself of who I am and speak that out loud to the world. Or, in the worst scenario, just to remind me to keep my profile somewhat updated since I never find the energy to write something good enough to be put online.
