Here’s what I’ve got!

Prompt: Pick a text/media object you love (e.g., poem, song, film, tv show) and perform a thorough explication that details how it handles gender or sexuality

Owen-

Loss of a lover

Disease metaphor for being closeted

Disease metaphor for AIDs

Scott-

Likes being a vampire, loves his life, wouldn’t change a thing

“Not all vampires are evil, but some of us do like to be.”

Privileged, openly gay and flirtatious, wants what he wants when he wants it and thinks he deserves to have such

First targets two pathetic men? I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE!

Avid-

He hates vampires! HATES THEM!

Vampires took Elle away, because Elle turned into a “vampire” and he had to kill her. Elle was a lesbian

Scott must be a vampire, because humans can’t be that hot, Scott’s evil because he’s making Avid feel not very straight things

I can’t be gay if I’m homophobic ahhh mentality

The moment he becomes a vampire he becomes a rabid simp, man lover

Scratch can also be an AIDS/closet metaphor

Closet:

AIDs:

“You have all the makings of a monster in you”

Shelby-

"Everybody keeps calling me crazy and I'm sick of it!"

"If somebody tries to kill me or any of them again I will kill them first."

"Because we're not a family. You made sure of that."

Very blatant found family metaphor

Apo-

She just wants her girlfriend man

Trans women drafted into the military

Legundo-

Vampires aren’t real

Well now that they are real I can help them be human again

Owen turned me into a vampire

REPLACE VAMPIRE WITH GAY AND HUMAN WITH STRAIGHT!

“Do no harm”

"I DON'T DESERVE ETERNITY!"

Martyn-

Possibility for homophobia existing in this world

Ren’s just your close male friend eh buddy? Even after you died for each other?

The moment he finds out vampires exist he decides they’re disgusting and deserve to be burned alive. Even if some don’t want to be. IEven if they used to be his friends

Cleo is the only exception because of how they handled they’re turning

Symbolic of a violent homophobe

"See you in just a second."

Pyro-

Yearner

"Yes sire,", "you hold no power over me" or "I've proven my loyalty"

Perpetual victim

Czeslaw (how he is interpreted)

Pearl-

Abolish-

Works with good vampires to kill the bad vampires how tf do I make this queer

Ren-

Wtf is his cursed tongue a metaphor for???

Tbh I think Ren just wanted to do a weird accent

Internalized homophobia???

Generational trauma?

Hates vampires bc a witch cursed him = hating trans women bc men suck?? Mayhaps??

Sausage-

Sex addict /silly

Perhaps he falls into the idea of queer paradise (need to look into him more)

Cleo-

Drift-

"I guess it's true that vampires can't see their reflections"

Coward

Running from her case

How do I make

This is one of those non-poem things that are among my favorite poems.

As the OP stated, the use of alliterative consonants is aesthetically just great, especially the placement of the strongest use at the end: “fuck him on the floor.” The use of “chintz” is indeed great word choice.

Because I’m insane, decided to scan the poem:

Not only is the second sentence, indeed, perfect iambic pentameter, the entire poem is perfectly metered, though the first sentence has four iambs rather than five.

There are further things I love about this poem, though: I like the casual connotations of “keep it real” juxtaposed with “chintz.” It causes me to interpret the “chintz” more strongly as meaning something fake, a facade. There is also of course the coarseness of “fuck,” which is a contrast with “chintz” but a different kind of contrast, gutsy and carnal where “chintz” is flimsy and inanimate.

And then there is the storytelling: there is SO MUCH storytelling in just these two lines. To break it down: The speaker is having sex with a married man, in the house he shares with his wife, which is “filled with chintz”—something that here connotes fakeness, in contrast with “keep it real.”

The illicit encounter in the poem takes place within a house filled with facade, the flimsy construction of the wife’s marriage and domestic sphere, but the encounter itself is a taste of something “real.” That’s a story, and it’s just two lines.

This is EIGHTEEN SYLLABLES, y’all. The amount of meaning condensed into these eighteen syllables is stunning, and it is so elegantly done.
