THE NIGHTMARE
In the nightmare I found myself nude in bed, and I was looking at a mirror on the ceiling, and I discovered that I am an aboriginal, and I'm circumcised!
Quickly I sat up, found my pants and looked in the pockets to find my driver's licence photo and it was that same colour, black.
I felt myself being very depressed, downcast, sitting in a chair.
But it's a wheelchair! That means, of course, besides being black and Jewish, I'm also disabled!
I said to myself, aloud "This is impossible! It's impossible that I should be black and Jewish and disabled!"
"It's the pure and holy truth," whispers someone from behind me. I turn around, and it's my boyfriend.
Just what I needed!!! I am a homosexual, and on top of that, with a Kiwi boyfriend.
Oh, my God... black, Jewish, disabled, gay with a Kiwi boyfriend, drug addict, and HIV-positive!!!
Desperate, I begin to shout, cry, pull my hair, and oh, nooooo...I'm bald!!!
The telephone rings …. it's my brother.
He is saying, ' Since Mum and Dad died, the only thing you do is hang out, take drugs, and laze around all day doing nothing.
Get a job, you worthless piece of crap... Any job! '
Mum? Dad? Nooooo ... Now I'm also an unemployed orphan!
I try to explain to my brother how hard it is to find a job when you are black, Jewish, disabled, gay with a Kiwi boyfriend, are a drug addict, HIV positive, bald, and an orphan, but he doesn't get it.
Frustrated, I hang up. It's then I realize I only have one hand!!!
With tears in my eyes, I go to the window to look out. I see I live in a shanty-town full of cardboard and tin houses!
There is trash everywhere.
Suddenly I feel a sharp pain near my pacemaker.... Pacemaker??
Besides being black, Jewish, disabled, a fairy with a Kiwi boyfriend, a drug addict, HIV positive, bald, orphaned, unemployed, an invalid with one hand, and having a bad heart, I live in a crappy neighbourhood.
At that very moment my boyfriend approaches and says to me, ' Sweetie pie, my love, my little black heartthrob, it’s time to go … the Collingwood game starts in an hour.’
Say it isn't so!!! I can handle being a black, disabled, one armed, drug-addicted, Jewish homosexual on a pacemaker who is HIV positive, bald, orphaned, unemployed, lives in a slum, and has a Kiwi boyfriend.
But please, oh dear God, please don't tell me I support the Magpies!!
