To be
kind
enough
to
have
compassion
on
someone
is
to feel
moved
sorry
because
they are
sick
or have
experienced
misfortune.
Can you
tell me
what
misfortune
has
befallen
queer
people?
- this is a real question, even though it is not a real poem

We already know you hate gays, why do you keep subjecting us to

why not try writing a real poem, one with thoughts and feelings, not
hate and spew. FWIW
