Queer slam

At East Hollywood

AkBar

Sharing my memoirs

With a sweeping

Audience

Plus I-tune podcasts

Highlighted once

each thirty days

During the past year

Corona closed the bar

Withdrawal symptoms

From not performing

E-mail pops on my acer

Hey Gordon

We will be going virtual

But until then

A special episode

called

Just Gordon

Assembling Your best stories

Will be Rebroadcast

Joyful wetness

Seeps from my eyes

Not since my wedding

In 2008

Have I wept from

Happiness

The wrenching stories

Of The last sixty-seven years

Covet me

Leaping depression remission

Viral trauma suppressed

I am in wonderland

Or Cinderella dancing

At the glittery ball

Endorphins blooming

Grilling stillness

Waiting in the wings
