Queer like honey in my coffee
Like the difference in my love
My lovestyle, not my lifestyle
Get with it man and fight the power
Queer like stories I tell
Regaling you by
Spilling hot tea
And rekindling old flames
Queer like me
Because I’m proud to be different
From my straight brothas and sistas
Because I am someone unique
Queer like the CriticismHate
That I get from family and friends
Who have the same level of melanin
And know the sting of oppression
Queer like Queer
Because the mantras of self-identification seem so many
And agreement on any so few
But that’s ok
Queer like the ancestors
Who give me strength, daily
Who give me encouragement
Who give me hope
Queer like Queer
Like Queer Like
Queer like Queer
Like Queer Like…..
