Yestergay

Today's post begins with a fractal called Marital Pride and I'll leave it to you to decide the relevance to the post below. The first few lines of this riff on the Beatles' song "Yesterday" after I heard the word "Yestergay" on a VH1 program sometime in the spring of 2006. After reviewing this I'm not sure it's one of my best efforts but I thought I'd put it out for your perusal.



Yestergay
You were gay but now you’re straight today.
Your preference have gone the other way.
How can this be, my Yestergay?
-
Suddenly
You’ve decided you’re as straight as me
And I wonder just how this can be.
Oh yestergay, came suddenly.
-
Why this thing is so,
I don’t know, and you can’t say.
I said “something’s wrong!”
How I long for yesterday (ay-yay-yay) yesterday.
-
You’d light up a room with your sashay.
Now you’re hitting on my girl today.
I don’t believe this, yestergay!
-
Why this thing is so,
I don’t know, and you can’t say.
I said “something’s wrong!”
How I long for yesterday (Oy-vey-yey) yesterday.
-
I don’t see
The point of metrosexuality.
Why can’t we all be what we’re meant to be?
Then we could all live happily!
Mmm-mm-mm. I don’t believe in–yestergay.
