Tristan Robert Lange

Nightmare on Film Street: Mark Patton’s Revenge

gay—
closeted
by force
not choice—
 
yes, a queen;
 
want to hear him scream
 
on the silver
 
screen?
 
boys
being boys
in the locker room;
 
the coach—
a fucked up
cockroach—
far worse.
 
phobia fellatio
from phobic fellows
 
upon
 
an actor
gay
written in
four finger-bladed horror
to be exactly that way—
 
gay—
 
a disposable
creative commodity
to be used,
 
abused,
 
thrown
 
a
w
a
y
.
 
but hey,
it’s another day,
 
decades away.
 
has Hollywood learned?—
or is it still
 
exploiting the bodies,
souls, talents of
 
queens
 
for screams?
