Welcome to where I write
Welcome to what sometimes keeps me up
And at others helps me sleep at night
Welcome to where people gawk
More exposed here than in my underwear
Bearing more than I care at times
Whether in prose or rhymes
If you know me in the “real world”
Be prepared to be confused and scared
But be glad you’ve been invited
Because what I write here, in the real world I often hide it
As weak tales that tell you everything and nothing about me
All at once
A genius
A mystic
And a dunce
As I make words dance and play across the page
Exposing the world to moments of pure happiness and rage
Welcome to the show
I hope you enjoy it

The Evolution of LGBT Portrayal in TV and Film
Happy Pride Month, all! I love Pride Month and everything that comes with it; the celebration, the festivities, the prestige. Pride Month is the ultimate beacon of positivity. Now sadly, there are a bunch of people in society who aren't really crazy about Pride Month and have their things to say against it. To those people, I'll only say this. There's a special place reserved for people who are against Pride Month. I'm too much of a gentleman to say it here, but I'll give a few hints: it rhymes with "bell," and I'm not talking about the city in Michigan.
