Faggott!

Faggott!

A Poem by Thomas Fitzgerald
"

A look at the turmoil of my life and the experiences shared by many of this once minority! The struggle is on going, however I think tides have been turned.

"

Little Nancy boy playing with your dolls,

Chubby and quiet, that squeaky voice,
Tease him, ignore him, make him an it,
Little mammy's boy rolling in their Royce.

Awkward adolesent never showers with us,
Crap at all sports, dirty and weird,
Do you all hear what they say about it,
That he looks and speaks a little queered.

F*****g faggott, he sleeps with other men,
Makes us sick to our stomachs, it's wrong,
Our priest says its a mortal sin,
I hope he never looks at my dong.

To all you b******s that bullied that boy,
I forgive you whole heartedly, no tears,
I've come through it stronger and better than you,
I no longer feel for you at all, no fears!

Bravo Mr. Fitzgerald ! Your right..it did make you stronger and it shows in your writing, not just this piece.
I bet some of those people have become more opened minded as our communities continue crack their hearts to see with love..
I myself am a "breeder" ( : loving called this .. (again) Bravo !
……
I came back to add… I have listened to many stories from friends and family..them growing up gay.. how they were harassed by the law, put into places for mental health..because don't you know .. it can be corrected? (joking totally) ..it is not like that now where I live..but to think these things happened to people I love and admire..to hear how they rose above injustice.. well it makes me pretty proud to know them !

Not only successful but with a caring, open heart filled with the soul of creative intense man. Bullying is felt around the world leaving no one immune. I recently had my High school bully contact me on Facebook to apologize. I wrote a piece on it here because it hit me so hard. Thank you for addressing the issue in such an amazing way.

Wow, this woke me up if I was anywhere near incoherent before, my senses are now all standing full tilt at attention! Very sad, tragic that people are so judgmental...this really slays me and goes right to my heart, I have an old friend, should say 'had' that committed suicide for the reasoning behind your words. His 'mate' was killed by bullies three years before. I might need a valium after this one...emotive would be a silly word since this one hit me over the head with a two x four.

Alexander, the "Great" was gay...anyone ever try bullying him?? :-p
it is a pathetic situation but it's always so when society faces something it doesn't understand.
especially in a country like mine where chuck gay, people don't discuss even straight love relationships...
but things are changing...I'm glad.

as usual, you ve done a great job! :-)

How horrible it must have been for you growing up. This poem is so full of emotion. I applaud your bravery and the fact that you are able to forgive. You are the better man for it.
