LGBTQ poetry to get to know, Part I

It's been quite a while since I last offered a compilation of LGBTQ-themed poems (not all by LGBTQ poets, I should note) which the American Academy of Poetry's Poem-a-Day newsletters has featured, so I'm playing catchup on that, in this and the next two postings. These poems were disseminated in January and early February 2023. Enjoy!
