THE RECRUITER (IN HONOR OF THE END OF “DON’T ASK, DON’T TELL”)*

“I specialize in gay recruiting.

It’s over now: 'Don’t ask, don’t tell.'

All over, that is, but the shooting

By some who think: ‘Cold day in hell

Before I’ll let a homosexual

Be partner to me.  Ineffectual,

A man can’t get it up in bed

With someone who is not co-ed.’

I used to think that way, believing

I’d be alone and then was shot;

Until, who’s Johnny-on-the-spot,

This gay guy said he wasn’t leaving.

He humped me out and then went back

And turned the ‘rags’ to bric-a-brac.”
