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
