trying to describe life through poetry
pushing sounded words against idea,
love, what was it?
men and thought and women’s dainties
puppies with skinned knees
over the shoulder trapeze jaw grip spin
muscle neck must have been a female Marine
or Navy Short Haired Sleek
up my adolescent boxers
at pitch night
baby sitter 40 years ago
discovers phone dating
gum smacking
mouth piece slapping
