I feel strong
with my too-small plain white t-shirt.
Tight on arms
and chest.
Showing muscles and shoulders.
Then the attitude
to match it.
Go Go Go Go
Go on
Go out
Go crazy
Go meet girls
Go drink in
Go dance
Go barefoot
Go naked
I'm strong.
I can do it all
for you to you with you.
Look where the sleeves are snug on my biceps.
Tight muscles
Tight cotton t-shirt
Tight door
Tight drum head
Tight bottle cap
Tight skirts
Tight socks
Go Go Go Go
Go on
Feeling strong
Feeling me
Feeling Gin
Go on
part two
now all i want
is tight white t-shirts
pecs hard like a washboard of waves
that splinter the bottoms of boats
when they are going too fast
and broader shoulders
bigger biceps and triceps
But not too big
so i can't still move
lithely in the dark
sliding through sheets
to meet someone new
part three
i'm 20 and immortal
i fall with love for women
i show them new
things to feel
better than just sex
(how dull that has become)
climax is nice
or wonderful
fantastic intriguing
but not
like or as good
as what i share
and try to create
emotion
the bridge, the framework for it all
the skeleton of my mind---
