For him

Is there a message in the body that speaks our sexual identity? For him, his preference was never in question and never questioned by his parents. The only real question was how flamboyant. High school was more about fashion than behavior. College was more about behavior than connection. Middle age was more about connection than comfort. Living with, sleeping with another whose gaps he filled with love and flair was enough to last him until that unexpected, insidious and withering death. But, dear, what he wore to his own funeral!
