piece of me?

piece-of-me

Hot:

So you say you want a piece of me?
{but only what you deem suitable, of course}
Certainly not the part that loves a woman
No, best leave that one at home for a while
We wouldn’t want your daughter to see
You miss me, do you?
{but wait a minute, not all of me}
Not the rainbow bits, you’re cool without [...]

lets get loud

lets-get-loud

Hot:

I promise you not a moment will be lost as long as I have heart & voice to speak & we will walk again together with a thousand others & a thousand more & on & on until there is no one among us who does not know the truth: there is no future without [...]

pictures of you

pictures-of-you

Hot:

What do you do with the pictures? What happens to eleven years of snapshots and cheesy portrait studio enlargements, wedding albums and vacation pictures? Horrid Walmart engagement photos that stand as a forever reminder of a very bad hair day, murky underwater snorkeling shots of unidentified fish in Hawaii, precious photos of the first moments [...]

the ocean

the-ocean

Hot:

This is what it was like for me, the first time.
the ocean
 
when I asked
what it was
like
to know a
woman
my dear one
replied
with infinite
wisdom,
“it is like
the ocean”
…..
 
and I
was
rolling and,
spinning and,
holding
the air
in my
lungs
so I would
not drown
 
eyes shut
but
mind open
under
and
over
and over
again
 
waves crashed
hard
and soft
on me.
and I
rode them
to
shore
floated
blissfully free
while tethered to
her.
 
clarity in
disorientation
the touch of
water
on my
skin
the feel of
heat
on her
breath
the sound of
desire
in
us
and all
around.

cherchez les femmes

cherchez-les-femmes

Hot:

I know where my eye goes first – to the rockstar bad girl, the edgy dyke with her short, spiky hair and larger than life attitude. She’s got tattoos and piercings; maybe her hair is bleached or dyed some outrageous color. She captivates her audience and works the room with a confident [...]

there is something

there-is-something

Hot:

In honor of valentines day:
This is not an ode to any one particular woman, but to all women who love women. Enjoy.

[This is what I listened to while I wrote this, so of course I think you should listen to it while you read it. One of the sexiest songs in existence.]
there is something
about a [...]

PDA

pda

Hot:

It feels delicious to walk through a crowd, my fingers intertwined with hers, and feel her thumb caressing the back of my hand. Or to stand next to her and feel her hand slip into the back pocket of my jeans, pulling me a little closer. To lean against her in a booth [...]

inevitable

inevitable

Hot:

and I came across a slice of wisdom that said
‘you were never not going to be here’
and it was right
this was as inevitable as the tides
as the shift of seasons
as the cycle of life and death
my whole life I have been spiraling
toward this point
and I no more had a choice about reaching this
than I did [...]

erase hate

erase-hate

Hot:

Like so many others, I was so deeply disappointed last week to learn that the Matthew Shepard Act had been dropped from the final version of the Defense Authorization Bill.
I clearly remember learning about the brutal hate crime that resulted in Matthew’s death. I was a year out of college, planning my wedding, and was [...]

personal

personal

Hot:

This is the first post I wrote for my own blog. The first piece of writing of my own coming out story, the first time I acknowledged in print that this was my new reality. It was written a few months ago, and a lot has happened since then, but it still means a great [...]

Lesbian Quotes

    Jesse Helms and Newt Gingrich were shaking hands congratulating themselves on the introduction of an antigay bill in Congress. If it passes, they won’t be able to shake hands, because it will then be illegal for a prick to touch an asshole. — Judy Carter
