Gay brother is hurried,
frenzied and anxious
with no hint of sexualized identity
beyond godly reunion
with labyrinthine daddy issues.
He speaks of personal demon monsters
that come for him
and I wonder
do psychotropic medications
rob him of sex
like the monsters that snatch him away;
like Gobblers forcing spiritual circumcision
on unsuspecting Golden children?
He teaches,
reaching out
to a fragmented world
for a mythological unified self
that I can’t quite believe in
despite of it’s appeal.
“Do you want to begin?”
Hell yes, I do!
