Stonewall








                                         Fists balled,
                                         bricks hurled;
                                         off of Stonewall.


                                         No space for a pas de deux,
                                         in this ballroom: Manhattan Burns;
                                         back cover of Vogue, this pink fur.


                                         Real hair’s real fake,
                                         and silence hurts; I dare you to
                                         unhinge our jaws, and feed us more Cake.


                                         These Houses and Tennis Courts in Greenwich,
                                         these lipsticks renounce suburbia;
                                         Pay It No Mind, at all.
