THE ASH OF THE GAY
I'm nfed about the meang of "the gay" this Cohen's song:.
om the ash of the gay:. The gay = the homosexual people or the glad people?
(¿los homosexual o los alegr? Eher terpretatn is plsible, although I tend towards the ia that is "the gay [=homosexual] people.
WAS ARTHUR ASHE GAY?
Why do you thk 's "los alegr" or "los homosexual"? It's a difficult ll, but if the third and fourth l are parallel thoughts, then "the homels" and "the homosexuals" uld be unrstood as parallel class of outst people.
I thk at the time of wrg 'gay' was more closely associated wh happy than homosexual hence my choice. I'd go for "gay - homosexual" sce wars - disorr sirens - fir - homels - ash are all "negativ" and the song is lled "Democracy" om his "The Future" CD which urg perseverance, reformatn, and hope the face of grim prospects. I always thought referred to the homosexuals that were executed by the Nazis along wh Jews etc.
