cities of rainbows

by Antwan Fields - Aries

new york-greenwich village
chicago-wrigleyville
miami-south beach
l.a.-west hollywood
and san fran
cities of rainbows that make me want to visit them
i burned my tongue on a pizza roll\
but it doesn't mean my dream is out of reach
throw me a lifeline and ill grab on
parade time, huge tools out and ready
have i lost my way?
up halsted street refusing to turn around 
and saying like a  mantra: im gayimgayimgayimgay
till it becomes my number one phrase for the remainder of my
life, i would like to be in  the city of rainbows
float the boat away
just leave us alone
please
it is time to unveil
im kissed and kissed back
cities of rainbows, beckoning, waiting 
and i walk toward them
my journey just beginning
in a city of rainbows
here is where i belong

Reason for writing:

    im gay
