I’ve found only one
true man-friend, not embarrassed
or threatened by me--
my poetry,my friendship,
or my mind or my desires.
(He died, & I miss
his harmonies, his humor,
his wonderful life.)
"Gene Raymond, "GINO!"-
what a wonderful man, he!,
in Hof, or Paris!
Amazing & true!
Accepting himself AND me!
Secrets, DAUNT & TRINE!
Generous with life,
more given Life than he took!
So alone, so sad.
Thanks! Thank you Gino,
for teaching ME how to love
past misconceptions!
