OUTmedia's KIT YAN -- BE QUEER, BUY QUEER!

Be Queer, Buy Queer!
Its ping cannot tell you which side it will land,
But as the copper warms smooth on your lifelines,
Your choice is clear-
Be queer buy queer.

A village created together,
Brothers and sisters building in unison,
Can one dollar make a difference?
Where it's spent can be fire.

One dollar can create an empire,
A t-shirt from a trans artist used to pay rent,
One dollar spent fought for equality,
Placed couples on tv with their families,
Happiness in the airwaves,
One dollar saves lives.

Comedians that make coming out a little lighter,
For that one boy contemplating suicide,
Before his friend dropped by to drag him to the show,
Next thing you know he's laughing and not so alone anymore.

One dollar can build stores that refuse to hire gays, or
It can make schools safe,
One dollar can fund political campaigns of hope or political campaigns of fear.

But we can hear the difference when our drop,
No longer into wishing wells, but
Puddles after the storm underneath rainbow skies,
So buy responsibly as the water ripples and the clouds clear-

Be queer- buy queer,
Be queer- buy queer,
Be queer- buy queer!
