Joe when did you first realise

That we were different

I was always attracted to you

Initially I thought it was because

You were so boyish in appearance

I liked girls and it troubled me

As I knew that I was not a queer

Was there any moment Joe

Possibly on the outward bound

When most of the group skinny dipped

I was surrounded by a number of beautiful girls

Quite naked but I only had eyes for you

My skinny boyish twin sister

I think it was then Josie

But you had seen me naked many times

My appearance was of no mystery to you

We showered together

I remember it clearly

I was using Lux soap

And you told me something that I have never forgotten

That was that Lux in its simplest form means light

It is borrowed from the Latin

White Light Bright
