Faggots inspired me
to wedge out more space
in the life still inside me.
I was inspired by faggots
who alluded to my facial hair
by a term I had never heard.
I promptly called them faggots.
It was the right call.
“Jeff” and, “Ass and titties.”
He either knows who he is,
or each knows who they are.
It’s just one or two faggots
enshrined in their comments,
and now honored with a poem.
Faggots have inspired me
to reach out my hand for more.
You two, faggots, you.
