Sphincter

I hope my good old ******* holds out

60 years it's been mostly OK

Tho in Bolivia a fissure operation

survived the altiplano hospital--

a little blood, no polyps, occasionally

a small hemorrhoid

active, eager, receptive to phallus

coke bottle, candle, carrot

banana & fingers -

Now AIDS makes it shy, but still

eager to serve -

out with the dumps, in with the condom'd

******** friend -

still rubbery muscular,

unashamed wide open for joy

But another 20 years who knows,

old folks got troubles everywhere -

necks, prostates, stomachs, joints--

Hope the old hole stays young

till death, relax
