There wasn’t a single story about AIDS on World AIDS Day.
an excerpt from a 2004 article posted on the actupny website
i hope you read the older article. crystal and hiv are still linked in the gay community. things may be starting to change, but it's not a done deal. and there are prisoners taken on a regular basis. today, i take a stand. i won't support the idea that somehow meth use is harmless. i will support your ability to make that choice, but i won't pretend that i haven't seen too much damage. i have seen it. i have been on the frontlines. i don't want to forget where i've been or what i've seen.
and i can say "never".
i can't be with you again. i never want these feelings to ever come again.
you'll never hear me crying. you'll never see my trying, to love you once again.
your love is so past tense.
