Caption : —love would come blinking fast it would come it would come it would come again— . . . people are always expecting me to fuck like a porn star . I only play one on the teevee some times . and this time I’d wanted to. I’d really wanted to fuck to black fuck to forgetting. . I was sleeping with women I felt wanted to devour me. perhaps they did. perhaps they didn’t. perhaps I wanted them to. . surprised to find me softer, sweeter, than what they’d imagined in a bedroom. . and then the fall and the run me running sans shoes through the night away from mosh pits of fantasy disguised as love . my arms limp spaghetti i’d only wanted to be tossed round a room against a wall am I ready yet cum till I wept . a life in monogamy hasn’t worked yet I’m not taking bets but I might be done . and then the gifts they started coming what were they buying? what were they silencing? never knew one that didn’t have the price tag left on . I had to go . a blizzard. January in Texas blanket of snow on the Texan street the Texan cacti an orange tree . and me alone with my feelings and my friends and my feelings and the snow . and with it I could near hear the radiator blurring steam . in New York all couples become teams fighting the elements in winter even the dead ones rally and try again a simple means of survival a heart fed . I could feel our sheets kicked off socks from heat at the foot of a bed our home not my home anymore . a sleep like I’ve never had before or again her head on my warm chest . busy street where poets once poet-ed now karaoke and hot dogs yuppies their voices bouncing off walls of glass and still— . a place you could feel time . that bed that building that view of a snowblown city street in morning and— . gone. . the Texas snow. and the feeling. fast as they’d come. . and she— like out of a sad dream an almost nightmare a misspent beautiful dream headlights blaring past screaming love would come blinking fast it would come it would come it would come again a comet hurling and for a flash . she was a light. . . 📷 @adamcolemandp . . . #queerwriters #poetryLikes : 1279

Caption : Gay things – off a prompt from @lydiagranered 📷 @adamcolemandp . In Austin, April is a magnificent surge. Greenery springing, as if from one of those children’s games involving linked arms, leaning back then catapulting forward at the help of sweaty teammates. . Nature moves, as if with a mission to take itself back, as though we are but squatters on this land. And in truth, we are. Vines come back stronger for having survived winter. They wrap themselves around the inanimate — ladders, wood planks, metal, plastic — de-arranging components, elements, molecules. The teamwork of trees and mushrooms. The decay repurposed as fuel. As new life. . I had never witnessed a plant growing before my eyes until Texas. Trumpet vines double in size as water hits them. It’s something out of Alice’s wonderland. Plants I’d thought dead return triumphant. . I had chalked up the landscape being overgrown to the people here caring more about the quality of their lives than perfectly mown lawns. Charming. Part of me moved here for the sweet relief of imperfect lawns. I now understand that Austin’s deeply rooted nature will only come back harder, stronger, faster, the more it is cut back. . So what really is the bloody point of quieting what is determined to be the loudest voice in the room? And why shouldn’t it be? Nature, Gaia, Mother Earth, what is for me, synonymous with equality, with truth, with life force, with God, and most recently, despite being a descendant of Cuban Catholics, the word gay. Lydia and I chuckling as we bow our heads in earnest at my Texas dining table, “dear Gay….” . Tonight I walk past a house where children play. Chalk in the well-loved lending library. And because I am a forever child, I pull the chalk from the library to use it. I contemplate writing the word gay. . . .

Caption : Happy pride, queers and allies! 🏳️🌈🦄🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈💖✨ Another gay turn around the sun. This one marks 10 years out of le closet for me. I feel nostalgic and grateful for the entire journey, even the challenging parts — those cracked me open and gave me new eyes to see with too. They softened me, they changed my view, my purpose. May the journey continue. May we continue to stare right down the barrel of love.

Caption : “Honey comb. The roses I bought. Pencils I stand in line to sharpen in the portable classroom in the sixth grade.

As we move through April, I am flooded with memories of a particular spring in which 30 queers gathered on a female owned flower farm in the heart of Texas to bring a bittersweet story of queer love to life. “Have you ever pulled a vegetable directly from the ground and taken a bite? This is queer love.” Please enjoy these still from the film. I hope to hug you after the screening tomorrow in ATX or in NYC in May!

As we move through April, I am flooded with memories of a particular spring in which 30 queers gathered on a female owned flower farm in the heart of Texas to bring a bittersweet story of queer love to life. “Have you ever pulled a vegetable directly from the ground and taken a bite? This is queer love.” Please enjoy these still from the film. I hope to hug you after the screening tomorrow in ATX or in NYC in May!

Caption : Tonight I look forward to being with you, right here in Austin, the birth place of this film, and to bask in the healing balm of queer community, friendship, fluidity, and the root of love, which I do believe is freedom. And I will caveat that by saying freedom which does no harm. A distinction we learn and experience together, piece by little piece. I dedicate this evening to the magnanimous and beloved, lost and never forgotten, Cecilia Gentili. May she rest in radiant peace. Tonight we celebrate Honey & Milk’s return to Austin at Hotel Vegas at 8pm presented by @hyperrealfilmclub screening before Under the Tuscan Sun. I hope to hug you there. Link in my bio.

Caption : Part 3/3 I was an art-hungry kid spending my days in the aisles of the Samuel French bookstore on Sunset with my nose deep in Shanley, Rebeck, Lorca, Williams, Chekhov. And between that auditions, including the one where the woman waiting ahead of me to go into the casting office whispered into her phone, “I’m just gonna book this job,” then proceeded to slide her underwear off from beneath her skirt, wink at me while dropping them into her purse, and let out false moans of pleasure within moments of closing the casting office door behind her. . . My nights consisted of acting classes, waiting on tables, and reluctantly using fake ID’s to get into clubs where I could bump elbows with industry people, pass them my business card, and politely assuage their advances. . . I rented every movie Meryl Streep had ever done and wrote essays about them for my own pleasure. Just to quench a thirst, a need to be studious, or perhaps simply to consider myself something more than a pig on a spit for consumption. Anything to keep the flame of my intelligence, my love of stories, burning. . .

Caption : Part 2/3 At school, I carried a thick book on breaking into the business of acting. I’d had my first agent at age 12, the unexpected outcome of a beauty pageant my grandmother had placed me in to distract me from my parent’s tumultuous divorce. I’d earned but two non-speaking film credits but from the POV of my 17 year-old brain, four years at a university would only stall my imminent success. None of my family had graduated college. It wasn’t a given that I would go. I chose not to try. . . Until years later. A story for another day. . . Highlighter in hand, I snuck my walkman headphones on beneath my hoodie to drown the voices of my academic teachers, read my books on acting, and study lines for whichever school play I was starring in. I was failing my economics class, missing often in order to complete my training at the hotel where I’d been hired. Securing a survival job as a restaurant hostess to support the pursuit of an acting career felt more important, more practical, more economical for my future than grades. . . My friends were studying for the SAT. I was going to be an actress. . . (Cont..) . .
