i'm not proud of nicknames

i'm not proud of nicknames... but then again, i find nicknames to be the archetypal form of endearment - a "belittling" with warm affection... i didn't have a nickname in primary school... the girls tried, rabbit... Danielle... i remember Danielle calling me rabbit, why? the way i ran... jumping in between running steps... i like Danielle,a brunette, with enough freckles to make her a vixen ginger... high school? Goldilocks named by Graham... or Chewbacca by Barry.. i was the only man attempting to grow long hair.. a mullet wast the running joke, among the Ian crowd... university? no nickname... shitty time... while industrial roofing took off, working for my father? Picasso... i was meticulous with the tar... but lately... my grandmother has a nickname for me... because of my beard... these days i'm know as Castro... i'm not proud of nicknames... but i didn't make them up! i wish i had... that being said... nicknames are quiet endearing... i'd love to see Danielle once more... see how much the freckles took over her complexion; Danielle... fuck me... what an erotic name... like m first love in the English tongue... the moment i heard it... Sam-anth-a(h)... curly hair, darkened blonde, mingling an autumnal-cherry mahogany with chocolate cinnamon... fuck! i've been so erotically mobilized / motivated... from such an early age... Danielle & Samantha... nicknames... and the rest is, history.
