Well said! Not only is the misconception damaging to heterosexualsβ view of us, but itβs also a detrimental stigma from bringing more queer people into the space.
Right?! That truly leads to a new mindset of what truly constitutes our identity! Itβs some fabulous introspection but does give me a headache if I think too long about it haha
I also loved The Memory Police. It has impacted how I am experiencing and valuing time as it passes.

First the dubious motivations & morality of the boys, then finishing with the calf still alive, with his mother, seeing twice what we can see
The poem is written on the night the calf is born, but the speaker knows what will happen tomorrow

About this poem: When my daughter was in preschool, she became obsessed with Frida Kahlo. We read Frida books daily, and I often had to modify or omit portions of the books to make them suitable for a 3-year-old audience. Even with the modifications, we had a lot of surprising conversations about physical pain (e.g., what does "wounded" mean? what is amputation?), mental pain (why was Frida sad?), and art (why does Frida paint herself crying?). I found myself thinking about these things after my daughter went to bed, and I began to write poems, sometimes in Frida's imagined voice, to explore the connections between pain and art.
