Here's a thing
Two men met
And fell in love
And they lived together
Both as men (not one butch, one fem)
For many years
And their friends were lawyers,
teachers, musicians
And any other professions
You could care to mention
And they didn't go insane
Or beat each other up
Or catch AIDS and die
They weren't any nicer to their mothers
Than anyone else
Nor did they have a keen eye
For interior design
They were just two men
Two men in love
Leading a fairly ordinary life
And all they asked for
Was the same visiting rights
The same inheritance rights
The same next of kin rights
The same human rights
