Notes for poem on why straights should not ‘play Gay’ –

-      Annie with wishing she’d never written “Brokeback Mountain” because she’s pestered to death with Gay men telling her how much it meant to them and their lives; annoyed, she wishes she’d never written it

-      Rupert playing Scudder – he wishes he’d never played that role because he hates all the people coming up to him and telling him how much “Maurice” and his role in it affected their lives; he wishes he’d never played it.

-      Billy, for although he portrayed the first regularly appearing Gay man on primetime television, on “Soap” way back in the seventies, he's recently said the public is not ready to see men kissing in movies; he said “they should not force it on us”

-      That’s why it’s vital for out actors to play Queer parts. Period
