I am a published queer poet (the "littles"), and am quite happy to have happened upon this site! I honestly believe that most queer folk are grossly misunderstood. Especially those that were there (during the worst of the AIDS crisis). Speak up! Say it loud and proud! Young and old alike. Never forget the wise words of Miss Midler: "Aren't you people tired of being stepped on?" And never forget the ones that cleared the path for all of us still alive today. Be it Whitman, Gertrude and Alice, Auden, Frank O'Hara, Ginsberg, Capote, Warhol, Quentin Crisp, etc. We have a very strong past. Now let us begin to make an even stronger future: Starting with Larry Kramer. Do you have the balls to put reactionary fools like Ann Coulter to shame? I say let us go for it--big time. Yeah, Silence=Death. So let me hear your beautiful queer voices. Starting today. Okay? Poetry or prose. Let's be sure and put the Archie Bunkers of the world to shame. Go for it! Especially now that we are still living in DubyaLand.

If you'd like to read more of my wicked words, feel free to click on Return (below each entry)--and that should take you to my site over at Journalspace. Plus I'll be posting more things here, etc. Dylan Mitchell is my name. And telling the truth about being queer in straight America--is my game. Peace.

I feel like a queer Roger Ebert!

Just wanted to thank Ta for the splendid editing job she did on my Brokeback Mountain review. I've already told several of my friends to take a sneak peek--and they all liked what they saw! Also, please know I am still reading my fave blogs here, and I wish I could leave comments for everybody; but my laptop gets worse by the day, and it is totally frustrating to see all my words lost in an instant. Curiously, emails are a different matter (except I am way lazy when it comes to emails), so I can only blame myself for that.

My injured leg is on the mend, and I really do love the new apartment. So I am desperately saving my pennies for a new iMac, and promise to return as soon as I can. I really do miss blogging on a regular basis. But all of you are in my thoughts, and I am reading your fabulous blogs. Keep up the good work! Hope life is treating each of you kind, and please don't forget about me: I shall return as soon as I am able to.

Best,

Dylan

P.S. Best post this in a hurry--before my laptop shuts down on me...

I thank each of you...
much--for your very kind comments! This is a painful time for most Americans. It is not possible to turn a blind eye to the tragic events of 9/11. The reasons are many (given your political views, etc.). But human lives are never to be taken for granted. Rich or poor. Queer or straight. And I think that's what I was trying to state: in my poem I wrote about the Twin Towers--a mere few hours after the tragedy took place. Thank you for all your very kind support! My goal is to be back (full force) ASAP! Keep on telling the truth, Dylan
