JON STEWART: "I’ll tell you this: Religion is far more of a choice than homosexuality. And the protections that we have for religion — we protect religion. And talk about a lifestyle choice — that is absolutely a choice. Gay people don’t choose to be gay. At what age did you choose to not be gay?

The Mirabeau Bridge
By Guillaume Apollinaire Translated by A.Z. Foreman Below the Mirabeau bridge there flows the Seine So too our love Must I recall how then After each sorrow, joy would come again Let night come toll hours away Days go by me here I stay Let us stay hand in hand face to face While down below The bridge of our embrace Roll the waves weary of our endless gaze Let night come toll hours away Days go by me here I stay Love goes away the way the waters flow Love goes away How life is long and slow How hope of life can deal so strong a blow Let night come toll hours away Days go by me here I stay The days the weeks are passing from our ken Neither time passed Nor love can come again Below the Mirabeau bridge there flows the Seine Let night come toll hours away Days go by me here I stay The Original: Le Pont Mirabeau Sous le pont Mirabeau coule la Seine Et nos amours Faut-il qu'il m'en souvienne La joie venait toujours après la peine Vienne la nuit sonne l'heure Les jours s'en vont je demeure Les mains dans les mains restons face à face Tandis que sous Le pont de nos bras passe Des éternels regards l'onde si lasse Vienne la nuit sonne l'heure Les jours s'en vont je demeure L'amour s'en va comme cette eau courante L'amour s'en va Comme la vie est lente Et comme l'Espérance est violente Vienne la nuit sonne l'heure Les jours s'en vont je demeure Passent les jours et passent les semaines Ni temps passé Ni les amours reviennent Sous le pont Mirabeau coule la Seine Vienne la nuit sonne l'heure Les jours s'en vont je demeure |

Consorting with Angels
I was tired of being a woman, tired of the spoons and the post, tired of my mouth and my breasts, tired of the cosmetics and the silks. There were still men who sat at my table, circled around the bowl I offered up. The bowl was filled with purple grapes and the flies hovered in for the scent and even my father came with his white bone. But I was tired of the gender things. Last night I had a dream and I said to it... 'You are the answer. You will outlive my husband and my father.' In that dream there was a city made of chains where Joan was put to death in man's clothes and the nature of the angels went unexplained, no two made in the same species, one with a nose, one with an ear in its hand, one chewing a star and recording its orbit, each one like a poem obeying itself, performing God's functions, a people apart. 'You are the answer, ' I said, and entered, lying down on the gates of the city. Then the chains were fastened around me and I lost my common gender and my final aspect. Adam was on the left of me and Eve was on the right of me, both thoroughly inconsistent with the world of reason. We wove our arms together and rode under the sun. I was not a woman anymore, not one thing or the other. O daughters of Jerusalem, the king has brought me into his chamber. I am black and I am beautiful. I've been opened and undressed. I have no arms or legs. I'm all one skin like a fish. I'm no more a woman than Christ was a man. Anne Sexton |

Sing anyway. ~Emory Austin You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. ~Eleanor Roosevelt |
