Jan 2014
these days,
even in our small high plains town,
a boy can wear makeup, nail polish,
even a feather boa.
oh, my old friend,

with a brocade smoking jacket
and flocked velvet wallpaper!
remembering, on his birthday, a friend whose flamboyant style put the gaiety in gay years before it was socially acceptable
