The Straight & the Gay -- Four Times Eight, H Thru A

Abe, as always, earns straight As.
Thus, Abraham’s rewarded.
Ashley…? Ash receives gay A’s.
His hash gets water-boarded.

Bubba’s straight bid proves successful.
Bub brings home the prize.
Bruce’s gay bid fails (though Bruce does
bring home sev’ral guys.)

Chuck’s in straighten’d circumstances.
Friends all lend a hand.
Cody’s circumstances…? Gay’d –
which get his sad hide cann’d.

Delivering the straight dope’s long been
Duke’s great claim to fame.
Daryl dishes gay dope. (‘Daryl’:
that’s a sissy’s name.)

Edward’s straight edge…? All Ed needs
for lines from A to B.
Etienne’s gay edge...? Essential
for his forays – well past Z.

Franklin’s straight flush beats your boat.
It beats my two pair, too.
Forrest’s gay flush loses –
and earns bruises in the loo.

Gordon rates Gibralter’s straits
“World’s Greatest Spot to Swim.”
Georgie dates Gibralter’s gays.

Herbert’s going straight to hell –
Unless he curbs his pique.
Hunter’s going gay to hell.
He’s packing as we speak.
