the former bark obomba, a.k.a. porgy, initially and quite violently refused to come out of the closet today. once persuaded with fakin bakin he was his usual neurotically happy go luck poop refusnik self. he is missing his mother love. she has been away in hospital for some time which makes any boy anxious and not quite his best self. i am hoping the new nom de guerre porgy will also facillitate hope and change in this addled but sensitive and worthy soul.
