Thomas.

A Poem by Thomas Fitzgerald
"

A study of me.

"
Tommy was bold, 
Tommy was cute,
Tommy was fine,
Tommy played flute.

Gay was Tommy,
Sexy was Tommy,
Men he had Tommy,
Afraid he wasn't Tommy.

I really enjoyed that little contrast you had, as if the first stanza described childhood Tommy, and the second one described the grown up Tommy. And also the way you described the childhood innocence, and then a little bit of adult naughtiness, and also your happiness and high self-esteem, and this shows how important it is to love oneself. I love this succinct write, and yet there is great meaning behind it. I enjoyed reading.

I'm interested in the way you're using traditional rhyme structures subversively to convey all kinds of awesome bad-a*s attitude. well done.

This is assertive and confident. Confidence dents universe and creates a space for itself. you have done a nice job here.

Original, and very bold. The last sentence in particular expresses the whole piece.

:) Last line is the "it" of this piece for me. Fear can eclipse all of the other wonderful things about a person. Remove the fear....see the wonder. Good stuff.
Cheers! R.G.
