I Wasn't Born A Screaming Faggot

Missing image
by Gregg Rowe


I came:

into this world

a screaming baby;

not a screaming faggot



I got the experience

when I was

walloped on the ass

Author notes

I was and I was not surprised to learn that there have been many numerous studies in the medical field pertaining to a correlation between child abuse and being gay.  I believe that what happened in my childhood between adults and myself, contributes somewhat to my being/my sexuality today.

    I got it... not sure I agree though lol
    I have to say that I've been lucky... my family is pretty good. I've never been physically abused, but I am bi.

    Of course, I am a bit nuts.

    Another sort of limerick-like piece. Very original...and therapeutic I'm sure.
