My Testimonials

October 5, 2003
Behind the beauteous Lord Alfred Douglas's brow lays an atheneum of histories and anecdotes of the nearly-forgotten as well as poetries and catty remarks yet to reveal themselves. He's an enthralling conversationalist and a conversation piece in his own right.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest of them all? If Oscar Wilde were the judge, Bosie would win. Even if he weren't, I think our fair Bosie is in the Top 10.

I just came across a book I had as a child, filled with animal nonsense verse by this beautiful boy, and thought I'd share one. -
'The Ostrich': The Ostrich always seems to try/ If he can peck you in the eye./ And if he can't succeed at that,/ He gives a kick and knocks you flat./ And when he's rolled you in the mud,/ He eats your flesh and laps your blood./ About this bird there's one good thing-/ *He never hits you with his wing.*/ And he is very easily pleased/ When once his appetite's appeased.

Most people remember me as Oscar Wilde's reckless and beautiful young boy, but I am also a very talented poet, and one who stood by Oscar when nearly all his supposed friends turned their backs upon him. Much that has been written about me is untrue, because people have much preferred to see me as "the destroyer of Oscar Wilde," rather than acknowledge that it was a hypocritical and homophobic Victorian moralism that destroyed us both. ------------------

In my later life I get married, join the Catholic church, become a raging anti-semite, and am imprisoned by Winston Churchill. But here on Tribe, I am locked in a delightfully wicked eternal youth.
