Figuring
Ginger couldn’t help feeling
uneasy.
But that was her.
O wasn’t it?
“G being G!” sneers Brick to
her face back then.
Peacemaker Harsley donates
his usual “Now-now.”
Wren, always anxious, wants
to cut to the chase.
“I never understood that.
People say it and other fancy
expressions here and I…”
Perpetually Puzzled Pam!
“Uh huh? Stay with that lack of
thought!” Ginger again.
Now-nows rain from elsewhere.
Professor Charlie, who never talks
whispers that Mrs Oak shouldn’t have
have brought in this new person:
“A moron of indeterminate sex!”
“You finally encapsulate the group’s
feeling!”
We laugh. Our pharmacist said it.

Roles
Our Jensy so very sweet
she even went crazy like that.
Measured. Softer than soft.
Unlike chums Rita and Lauradel.
Volcanos!
Oh well, boyfriends Benny and Kurt
bore their raging.
Ought to be golden trophies for men
can handle women. (First I thought
display on mantels, but no mantels
in today’s apartments. Okay, add
to Silly Sociology!)
At any rate, Jensy smiled through it
a couple of beats way back when,
subsided.
Resumed Steady-State-Lovely!
No boyfriend, though she’s certainly
pretty enough!
Hey! I just love being around her.
And myself after.
Not enough can ever be said of
such women!

Conversant with Conversion
When Beatz became Brick, he narrowed
her wide slate of complaints to the New
York Yankees and “fairies.”
The hormones had already somewhat
kicked in before the operation.
Deeper voice and scratchier beard.
All the usual gang proved supportive,
but wary of the macho bit criticising gays.
Which he toned way down, and pretty
much majored in baseball. He certainly
knew the Yankees had hit a fallow period,
and now steeped himself in their glorious
history!
His group at Morningside Clinic continued
to help with the homophobia.
He had to, of course, go back into his
previous life as a woman.
All the while, he felt pressure from the
gang to start dating.
Had a Dorine-X Robot programmed
as his old female persona and took her
out as a trial.
She being such a flower person, the
first dates consisted mostly in strolling
through public gardens.
Delightful! Until conversation got
into gear.
Argument actually.
Finally, Brick exploded “I love you Beatz,
but you’re such a pussy!”
She sarcastically cooed, “Way down
deep you’re superficial, Brick!”
He countered with a mantra: “Ruth, Gehrig,
Mantle, Maris!”
Later, Dr Aus, group facilitator, laughed,
felt it impossible for any individual to be
deep in both sexes.
The next day Brick traded her in for
a Harley.
And yes, that’s Sexy Rita you’ll see
hugging him thereupon.

Soft Racism
...it's part of the merriment
So, the gang goes to hockey
games because so few players
afro-darkie.
And those few we have fun with.
Not as much as with a black
couple sitting two rows in
front of us.
Hilarious escalation of remarks.
Cleverly veiled. Well, most.
They change their seats.
Anyway, our team loses though
we triumph!
All in fun! Though I grant you,
not altogether innocent.
Win some, lose some.
Now don’t think plain nasty!
If that couple in trouble, we’d give
‘em the sleeves outa our vests!
