An LGBTRDCST Deconstruction of Gainsborough’s
Blue Boy
Blue Boy
must be examined through the lens
Of neo-post-colonial queer theory
And LGBT hegemonism
Inverted as bourgeois sentimentalism
It subverts the trope of trans-feminism
As a patriarchal gesture of scorn
Plasticized in pale iridescent blue
And transgressive in its imposture
Or maybe it’s some kid bribed with a shilling
To pose for this picture, however unwilling
It's just a picture.
