Poems
Feb 2011
that sucker hurts
I have a grapefruit
sized welt on my
right shoulder-blade,
my muscles crack
when I move them,
and my beard is
coming in thicker
than it ever has
before
I clocked a random
guy in the hall and
I completely meant
it,
it just wasn’t meant
for him
poor guy
guess this is what it
means to be a man
scars on the body,
violence in the heart
tears, love,
and vice
not allowed
on the
outside
I reject my right
to all this
