Its funny not laughably funny
queer
perhaps is a better word
when
you recognise that what youre hearing is also overdubbed with another language
aimed at those who hang on the coded words within a speech
it was irksome he thought
that some people tried to be slick
choosing
not to be plain-spoken
refusing
to hold their discourse out in front of the shimmering veil they hid it behind
not that that would happen
being plain-spoken carries
culpability
and the desire of coded words is
deniability
I didnt say that
Youre putting words in
my mouth
You misunderstood my intentions
coded word are articulated acknowledging or addressing a specific subaudience
their specialised listeners
not all were dire
physicians
physicists engineers attorneys economists
though others
were
but theyd deny it
he listened to a program
regarding transgender children
NO(he didnt have to hear it to hear it)
Where
the hell do you suppose transgender teens and adults come from
and during the discussion he
picked up three parcels which were impossible not to be code
Persistent
Consistent
Insistent
they might as well have been pointing
their fingers at him
at his
belligerence and affected curmudgeonness
though he didnt really SEE the pair as derogatory
not
as other people saw them or accused him of being
all he ever did
was respond when his
triggers were pulled
Know Thyself
he
fuckin knew himself like a book and chose
NEVER to cross himself
if that hurt someones feeling or bothered them
they best not look for apologises from him
they
werent coming
persistent consistent insistent
having known transsexuals now
called transgender
three more potent words couldnt have been used to describe what he heard unremittingly in all of their life stories
three more potent words couldnt have been used to describe what he heard unremittingly in all of their life stories
they were eye-openers
they not only opened the
book they
tore it in half turned it into rags
by comparison
anyone elses lives were
simple
it seemed even then he was
attracted to the unorthodox
the Odd
and how unOdd they were if you
stopped and took the time to really experience them
choke down what repelled
you ignorantly
looked and saw what truly was revealed
he couldnt guarantee that you wouldnt
wish to be pithed afterwards
to forget
itd be the only way you could
