Subjugation by Grant Harbison


A man
No less
Furtive proclivity
Can’t suppress
A man
No more
Transformed behind the bedroom door
Hetero aberration
Alter ego’s subjugation
Satin and silk
Heels and lace
Cerise lips
And made up face
Perplexity
Desire attests life’s complexity
A contradiction
Compelled to concede to anomalous affliction
Devouring delicate manly pride
With the need to express the feminine side
