if i was a wiser man
i remember the shower
and you coming in right
as i was washing my balls
you looked me right in
the eyes and asked may i
if i was a wiser man
i would have married
you right there
but that kind of shit
didn’t exist in me at
the age of 21
but the images stuck
in my brain from that
shower still persist a
quarter century later
i’m pretty sure you
and your family are
comfortable living
out west
i still laugh when
you said i’d be the
perfect one to have
an affair with since
i was living on the
other side of the
country
well, here i am on
the other side of the
country
patiently waiting
