As Queer As James Bond, By: Hongwei Bao

July 1, 2024 by Hongwei Bao

As Queer As James Bond, By: Hongwei Bao

I want to be a different kind
of James Bond. Dressed
in a tuxedo, ice in whiskey,

cruising men glamorously.
Take off my shirt, open
my biceps and six pack

to a host of men.
Go to bed with enemies.
Pounding guts. World politics

a trail of broken hearts.
James Bond, when can you
be as queer as me?
