In the company of women,
I stand erect with fervor
For all my life.

An actor at the curtain call,
I bow with grace after
each performance.

A double-crosser spy,
I enjoy surreptitious entry
But much more, if it's rear attack!

Sometimes, a maudlin
I cry a basin even
before the cave in!

I am like a servant
Which delivers the food
That life may go on.
