An idealised view of who
men think they are.

a pop star
a *** machine,
the matinee that women love
and men desire to be,

the macho man,
Peter Pan and
Tinkerbell?
well
it's not the dark ages
anymore.

it's harder to be anyone than the one you thought you were when the ideal isn't ideal even when you think you're there.
