! Poem by Wendy Videlock

Dear Writers, I'm compiling the first in what I hope is a series of publications I'm calling artists among artists. The theme for issue 1 is "Faggot Dinosaur." I hope to hear from you! Thank you and best wishes.

—Ali, editor, Artists among Artists


I think that I shall never fear
a brontosaurus that is queer,

iguanodon as fetisheer,
a mammoth bringing up the rear,
an astrodon with extra gear,

metrosexual squirrel and deer,
a breeder with a dance career,
a fruit with cauliflower ear,

a lesbianic Chanticleer,
a grinning limpish-wristed Lear,
the weird one or the mutineer,

but those who perfectly adhere,
stay clear, stay clear, stay clear, stay clear.
