I can't get much out of these three line poems. To me they're I was / and I did / and this. But I'm an expert in the subject of race. When I was growing up there were two: White rednecks and black niggers. The whites called themselves rednecks and the blacks called themselves niggers. And they called each other that hatefully, but they always got along. This is the early to mid '90s in the rural American south. The whites and blacks pretended to hate each other, but they really loved each other. The football teams had these hard, solid good-looking white and back and mexican and asian guys, and they kicked the shit out of everybody. . . .
But they were always laughing and calling everybody else not on the football team faggots. I was called a faggot. Shit, I wrote poetry and was in drama class. And there were homosexuals in my drama classes and called themselves faggots. And when I was called a faggot by the tough guys on the football team, the gay guys in my drama class laughed at me. Because they knew I wasn't a faggot. So they who were thought less of me too.
So I say, people of all races are assholes. I'm an asshole. You're an asshole. My exgirlfriend and her new boyfriend are assholes. Just get over it. I love and have loved my whole life people who were of other races and sexual pers however you spell it usians than me. White people have called me a dirty spic over and over throughout my life. And I call a spade a spade. We all deserve to be made fun of. I just get: Honky, Cracker, Spick, Squint-eyed, Sand-nigger. I get that over and over. So I'm not ashamed to call a spade a spade or a faggot a faggot. I get called a faggot every day of my life. And if I was gay, I'd just be gay. I don't have anything against it.
When I write, I don't think about the social group the word identifies with. I use words like faggot and nigger as words themselves. I'm a word man. I use words because I'm defending language. I don't give a shit about the racial or sexual group the word describes or offends. I don't care about what words offend. I champion the words themselves. Loser, that's a word for me. I champion it.
