Men everywhere...

Man and men everywhere;

Silver-fox, gay, several-times re-married & divorced.

 

But not one without baggage to be seen —

 

Pimped up with ****

Waged weary by work or

Isolated through layered losses,

The modern man: a peculiar specimen.

 

It seduces the obvious why we turn to women to fill the void;

Upside-down desires? Or love that truly inspires?
