Nome Fanzine | Judi (1987), Humberto Garcia (1980), Ellen L Kobrin & Lydia Moon (1981)
--keep reading for poems in plain text--
McCoy
by Judi
When you came to me that night so very long ago,
I sensed a puzzlement,
A need to know and understand…
Interpret your own upwelling rush of
--Dare I say it--feeling.
So I became your translator, Spock,
Your standard giver and the measure
against which you
Calibrated your thoughts and--there,
I said it again-- Feelings.
You placed me in the role of lowest
common denominator.
I was the pit of emotional,
wallowing humanity;
You were the cleanly slicing pendulum,
Oftimes drawing blood with your
steely sharp logic,
Cutting out the dross,
occasionally sparking pure metal.
You read my face and eyes,
Storing information away
For that longed-for instant,
Hoped-for opportunity of a
dream-come-true day,
When you could love Jim,
Somewhere other than in the black
crypt of your soul.
And that moment came,
No fixed date or time,
It was a knowing, an awareness of a passion
unchanged, unchained,
Sought and claimed in the fullness of your time.
The ransom of your love set you free,
But locked me in a cell of desolation,
No longer sought, no longer read…
No longer valued--
So I said
The price of your desire--McCoy forsaken.
But chance encounter and predestination,
The needs of the many enmeshed with deadly radiation,
I was there and so were you,
You gave all you had to give and
I received all that I could hold,
To keep safe and warm,
Until called forth to-- Remember.
No Vulcan ritual can exorcise these
tangled thoughts,
Yours and mine,
Of warmth and tender consolation
mingled with
Precisely logical explanations;
Knowing this about ourselves,
We can reach, love, heal and--no longer fearing--
meld.
You can say you love me,
Not with voice or face or gesture,
But eyes can speak,
Minds can smile,
Spirits can be held
in loving arms
Bestowing completion
to our lives-
And I know I am cherished and
no longer forsaken.
-- -- --
Lament of the Other
by Lydia Moon
"Physician, heal thyself," the maxim goes.
More truth has ne'er been said. No other soul
Can e'er relieve me of the pain that grows
As all the years demand their rightful toll.
My friends believe they understand my heart.
They pass the gruff exterior, and see
That neath the face I show, there is a part
Too vulnerable ever to set free.
But even they can never know the full
Extent of this great loneliness I bear.
The times when I would welcome Lethe's pull.
To give surcease from pain no one can share.
I cannot heal myself, and so I keep
My true despair inside me, buried deep.

Anyway, if you haven't been able to tell by the burst of joy I've been having today, this is a sex-positive space.
My wife is a sapphic trans woman who makes her living off of drawing porn. I am a queer trans masc asexual enby who makes my money off of writing smut, as well as by transcribing oral histories of queer elders who have had a really wonderful time getting to live freely and authentically in their spaces, and this includes being incredibly sexual.
I will never forget the woman I transcribed who was so pouty that she worked in the bath house that the lesbians did not cruise in because she wanted to be picked up by these women and she wanted to be able to see them cruising. God, the stories she told about how it felt to be a butch surrounded by gorgeous femmes in a lesbian bar in the '70s and '80s, getting to just soak them all up and not be afraid of the depth of hunger she felt in her soul, not be afraid to stare and appreciate all the beauty around her. I have relished getting to hear these incredibly personal tales of queer people, especially women, who did not let their desires be repressed or sanitized by a puritanical society who tried to shut them up and shut them down.
If this is something that makes you uncomfortable, that's totally fine. This blog might not be the space for you. And I really hope you go and find your own joy, whatever it might look like 💕 Just do it with kindness, okay?
