Tim, Patrick, Robert and Kyle were childhood friends in an affluent
neighborhood born in well to do families with political ties. The four friends
did as they were told. School, athletics, social events, clubs and up holding
the family name were made priorities. Married, college graduates and fathers
the four became. Tim, Patrick, Robert and Kyle were viewed as successful to all
especially their families. Prestigious and privileged were their lives.
Politics was pursued by the four men entering their late twenties and they were
supported strongly by their southern Republican conservative constituency.
Their family names served them well as none of them ever suffered a loss in an
election on their rise in the political arena. The men were right wingers and supported
big business, helping to increase the divide between rich and poor in their
communities. Country clubs, servants and old southern living was the lifestyle
they were raised on and perpetuated to their personal populous. Their concern
and function in politics was only to preserve the way of life for them and
those of their kind, the southern Caucasian wealthy. Southern Baptist Luke warm
Christians, they held love in their hearts for only those like them. Devout
Christians the elders of their families proclaimed to be but they wouldn’t
allow a man of color into their home to do anything more than serve them. They
were not viewed as equal. Tim, Patrick, Robert and Kyle were part of a secret
society and often made their way from their small town in Arkansas to Orlando
Florida for clandestine meetings. Covert conversations and undisclosed
information and activity occurred unknown even to their families and especially
their constituents. The four men traveled together quarterly to the southern
city to conduct furtive surreptitious seminars at their favorite resort.
Curious but unfazed their wives remained over the years; they weren’t terribly
concerned as long as they were provided for and their social status was up
held. Appearances were important. Now in their mid forties holding seats in the
senate and congress, governor and lieutenant governor the men continued to
promote their views and champion their people. The four were now more visible
and becoming enemies of liberals, minorities, women’s rights groups and gays
everywhere because of their politics and boarder line offensive statements
through the years. Their private resort where they held their “meetings” was
actually the largest resort in the world. The largest gay resort! The
Parliament House. They were recognized on television by a young man they had
group sex with twelve years earlier who passed the information on to his
activist boyfriend. A plan was made to photograph the men on their next dive
into debauchery. Many photos were taken of the men partying, having cocktails
with young hustlers and having sex with the other guest at the resort.
“Those hypocritical queens! I could tell by the way he switched his
little ass on stage that he was family. I can’t wait to get these photos to the
papers.”
Chance Coward squealed from behind the camera lens as he snapped
compromising photos of the four politicians. Unfortunately none of the four men
could face up to the shame they caused their families or themselves so they
each took their own lives within days of the breaking news. A poisonous punch
was made and consumed by all four one windy Wednesday afternoon. Hypocritical
insincerity can sometimes kill.
