i stand only to say i have nothing to say at all

as someone interested in radicalism language sexuality
shit who isnt
interested in sexuality i mean
well we should be interested in all those things
together

i thought alot about lgbtq how it got where it is
when it got where it is
what the orders mean
could mean if switched around
the importance of placement
indices of arrangement

so before i started writing
i did what any cis radical
worth salt should do
i wikid it

oh jesus im out of my league

but theres so much good stuff
i wont stop reading but im not gonna open
my stupid mouth where
it doesnt understand

ill let
better
more experienced minds
do the talking

consider this a nudge thata ways
instead

ps i smiled at the name of this magazine

pps i did manage to find myself in the alphabet soup
i like that the struggle has produced places
even someone privileged as me
can fit into once theyve started
unpacking the ideas and fighting
internalized oppression/oppressordom
ugh ... tangled thoughts
more on that later probably

hail potus

get a kick out of the most fashionable acronyms in usa politics

potus

which because you were not born under a rock

like i was

you know stands for

president of the united states

bit on the origin here

ok yes yes been around a while

but i think its really come into the spotlite

with twitter

gotta conserve those characters

and its perfect that obama is the first real potus

part of that

handy, sassily insidish, behind-his-back reference

just fits

the potus who brought us

a more techsavvy

humane eloquent hip

administration

crossreference here

its good

its populist

its jive for the hipster generation

a setapart hallmark for the black american achievement

of presidentialness

it also sounds v roman

doesnt it

potus

obscuring the origin of president

which we didnt seem to think about so much before anyway

one who presides

an arbitrater

no

potus is a doer

regal imperial

master of legions

and drones

fitting for global leader

and just a little

alcoholic

just a touch

vampiric

it fits

yours for the revolution
