A Sinner's Plea

My new song about same-sex marriage.
The lyrics are in the video description.
This one is very important & precious to me.
I hope you like it.

Dear Sexy Boys in my Life

Dear sexy boys in my life,

If you think "oh she's a dyke, she'd never go for me..." then you are probably WRONG.
Because of late, all I can do is check out boys. I don't know why, & I don't care why, I just want you all to know that if you are a boy, & I know you, then I have probably admired your ass many a time in recent weeks. Especially if you are Cayenne, Caen, or Tira. (Yay for codenames!)

Much much love,
Cadence the Omnisexual Polyamourous Femmy Boy-lover.

ps. But no facial hair. I will not tolerate facial hair. Eew.

In your FACE, conventional society!

Just when my quantity of girlcrushes was getting up to "you might want to think about calling yourself a lesbian there, girlie" status...
I develop a killer, ass-kicking, unmistakeable, undeniable, romantisensual, totally real, genuine & true crush on a BOY!
(A biological boy, one who's not in turmoil about his gender, nor is he secretly a girl in any way, shape or form.)
And so, once again, I am at peace with my label.
Hallelujah. Amen.

one of those weird bisexual-specific things

...wherein i find myself attracted to a boy
because of the qualities in him
that make him like a girl.

well you're so damn beautiful with
arms that ought to go around me & only around
me. i've tried to convey "why can't
i have - " with my eyes but not much works.

pretty boys are all the rage in the flashing
trendmill that is my romantic mind. & so it goes.
my wanting, like the tides, is rushed & erratic
& pushing steadily until you get it.

talking til all hours about hair metal, nachos,
girlfriends & death. it seems you understand me
but, based on other things, i'd wager to say you're
just playing a role & i'm not fitting the script.

Butch Is A Noun by S. Bear Bergman: a haiku review

I know what butch is.
It is a noun; this book told
me so. It is true.

Butch is a profound
identity - no limits,
no rules, nothing's fixed.

Gender outlaws, you
have found the book you must read
(after Bornstein's works).

My favorite parts
are those which flatter femmes (of
course), making me blush.

Also made me blush?
The sexy parts. Whoa nellie.
Erotica bliss.

You will feel like you've
known Bear all your life & ze
"bears" hir soul to you.

I met Bear & ze
was the sweetest Jewish geek
butch I've ever known.

Butches, femmes, trans folks,
& friends of the above should
all savor this tome.

the fun in falling

I like your hair, your flair,
the way you can do anything
that's probably why,
by & by,
I'm finding myself slowly falling.

You have the loud laugh
you do the full mile, never only half
the sky shines into your eyes
& to my suprise
I'm finding myself slowly falling.

oh my g-d

So on a slight tangent

Today me & my dearest Finny (Chavery) went on a photoshoot rendezvous in the heart of downtown Toronto, where acceptance levels are high & the churches have even lent a helping hand to the queer community. Originally, the plan was to find a decrepit church or abandoned building & to have her in her old ballet getup. But, we got sidetracked & would up in the Eaton Center, right next door to my old church where one of my moms met her partner (before converting to Judaism) & my godfather still reads the narrator lines for the oldest Christmas play in the GTA (113 years running?). The Holy Trinity has a pride parade car float that I rode upon as a child, & when we came in an exceptionally nice (exceptionally gay) man gave us a warm welcome & a minitour. We asked permission to shoot a roll of film & he was all for it. He even said "If I had known the National Ballet would be stopping by I would have cleaned up a bit!". So with this encouragement we continued on our merry way. As Chaves was lighting up a prayer candle for my camera, an old homeless man walked into the church, shouting imperceptible things. As he drew nearer with his accusatory finger, my stomach gave a lurch, he was shouting out our disrespect in the House of the Lord, & what the fuck was this disgraceful whore doing in this getup, etc... The nice man tried telling him that all was well but he raged, gave us a fright & all but chased us from the threshold. He hadn't even meant to pray bcause he chased us right out, we weren't making noise, a fuss, or disturbing him. He shouted at us from across the church courtyard, maybe, maybe not noticing Chaves' rainbow satchel.
I'm an atheist. I can't imagine anything existing beyond whatever this is, I believe we rot etc...
I'm posing a question for you, readers. Where do we cross the line? Would a school photoshoot in a leotard, tights & pointe shoes be pushing your tolerance limits? & Where do we gays fit into the religious circle?
Awaiting your opinions,
No disrespect,
Lovely day,
-Cadence Lee

genderlabel

What's yours?

When I chose for it to say "my sexuality is" as opposed to "my identity is" or what have you, I forgot that one of the labels was "cat lover." So, never fear - I am not a beastiality fan. :P
