Religion of the Pitchfork Constabulary

in other words
pitchfork law under
no godly jurisdiction
religion largely dried-out
where the river fords...
[Sage Sweetwater]

from the first day
horses, hay and other
valuable Sundance Wives
property, the Oath newly organized
under the Rosicrucian sun ray,

rarely has a group
of women risen from a
social blunder so superbly,
capturing and hanging - quelling
a ringleader and letting word of mouth
drive the rest away far on the bad side of
Joseph Smith's day, the great mormon trail dupe,

we get to see the good religion
that resides in us like the weaned
mustang babies wild and free living well
under god's sky our mission to improve religious
genetics through heretics of our group the witch
grass remembers our smoke from the sage-filled basin,

our brand looks
like hieroglyphics
religion of the pitchfork,
california law just mandated
that famous gays The Sundance
Wives
bettering society will be included
in the school history books...

Look Away Silence by Edward Patterson

Martin Powers wanted an ironing board for Christmas. Instead, he got . . . Matthew Kieler, a non-returnable gift, but a gift that kept on giving. A powerful tale of survival, compassion and unapologetic love in the time of AIDS.

Zara's Bois by Gracie McKeever

When the powers-that-be make the decision to return a selfish party-girl, Zara, to Earth on three missions of redemption, can romance and mayhem be far behind? One hot and trendy gay nightclub, two bickering angels and three unlikely pairs add up to
