I will not write on lost love, But do rim shots on a drum. Blow a flourish at your exit, Sounding the fury you left. I hope you hear how well I'm doing. I can roast baby back ribs, Add softener, Keep a clean kitchen sink. I think I could birth now, And do just about anything a woman can. I am male. A man. I need remind myself After public emasculation For the unbridled innateness Which is sometimes us. We are heading towards equality, Finally, and, When all is said and done, Keep the ribs.

Keep the Ribs
I will not write on lost love, But do rim shots on a drum. Blow a flourish at your exit, Sounding the fury you left. I hope you hear how well I'm doing. I can roast baby back ribs, Add softener, Keep a clean kitchen sink. I think I could birth now, And do just about anything a woman can. I am male. A man. I need remind myself After public emasculation For the unbridled innateness Which is sometimes us. We are heading towards equality, Finally, and, When all is said and done, Keep the ribs.
