staring but not caring
doesn't make you a hero
especially not if you're hetero
claiming to be bearing
the banner of the queer
chanting our cheers

yet ignoring the jeers
of the bigots
that would want to live in the year
of 33 AD, one without bidets and spigots
and closing an eye
believing by and by
that heros come from zeros
yet playing that lute like Nero
