Funny, the first place I can offer a public view of my mind has nothing to do with the title of this poem.

The first time I had, what friends call, "gained my manhood" was recently demolished and turned into a housing development surrounded by more housing developments.

The first time I had gotten emotionally close with a girl was in a place where I learned many more things, yet I dont ever have to nor want to go there again.

The first time I met my best friend was the first time i.wondered which of them was my best friend.

The first time I posted a poem online was in a place where no one could see it but those I invited.

The first time I shared my poems with someone was the last time i saw those works.
