Queen Beats A Straight

by Not Enough   Feb 24, 2009


You don't like us because we're not you
But that's okay, we feel that way too
You can make us feel like social outcasts
But you can't be rid us even if we're harassed
We won't judge and we won't debate
Because we know a queen beats a straight

You don't even have to support the parade
But just try not to humiliate and degrade
You can call us fags and ignore what we say
But we're not like that, we are what we display
And don't worry, we aren't going to hate
Because we know a queen beats a straight

You don't have to hang around with us
But just stop looking at us with disgust
You can stare us down until we feel uninvited
But trust this; we're going to stand united
We're stronger than you, we know we're great
Because we know a queen beats a straight

You keep on hating because we're here to stay
But we won't hate you if you stay out of our way
You better understand, we're never going to leave
But soon you'll see how you're just so naive
And either way you'll still discriminate
But just remember, a queen beats a straight

    I don't write in punctuation really.
    People usually just assume that when it's a next line there's usually a pause.

    Nice write, the flow and rhyme were both good, but I think the flow could've been better with some punctuation. Punctuation is very important in poetry, it lets the reader know when to pause or stop as well as adding to the overall flow.

    Overall a well written piece of poetry, keep up the good work.

    Peace, Joe
