:46:03
I've seen you around,
but I had no idea you were queer.
:46:09
Queer.
:46:10
I saw you arrive
with those three Interzone boys.
:46:14
What an entrance.
:46:16
You all looked very...
:46:18
familiar with each other.
:46:21
Queer.
:46:25
A curse.
Been in our family for generations.
:46:28
The Lees have always been perverts.
:46:32
I shall never forget
the unspeakable horror...
:46:36
that froze the lymph in my glands...
:46:40
when the baneful word seared
my reeling brain -
:46:44
I...
:46:46
was a homosexual.
:46:50
I thought of the painted,
simpering female impersonators...
:46:53
I had seen in a Baltimore nightclub.
:46:58
Could it be possible
I was one of those subhuman things?
:47:04
I walked the streets in a daze...
:47:06
like a man with a light concussion.
:47:09
I would have destroyed myself-
:47:13
But a wise old queen-
:47:16
Bobo, we called her-
:47:20
taught me that I had a duty...
:47:22
to live and to bear my burden
proudly for all to see.
:47:28
Poor Bobo came to a sticky end.
:47:31
He was riding in
the Duc de Ventre's Hispano-Suiza...
:47:36
when his falling hemorrhoids
blew out of the car...
:47:39
and wrapped around the rear wheel.
:47:41
He was completely gutted,
leaving an empty shell...
:47:45
sitting there
on the giraffe-skin upholstery.
:47:54
Even the eyes and the brain went...
:47:55
with a horrible "schlupping" sound.
