Tony

To quell any ambiguity that tends to result from bad poetry ,"Tony" is what most men eventually become when the horizontal hanky panky is involved. For your reading displeasure :

sex is sex
love is love
take the time to define the line
before one intertwines and
your bi-weekly lover
becomes another
hating you from
across the cover

"Show me how you do that trick..."

i promise someday to return all your trousers
and we'll live in a velvet canoe made of bananas
and steal goodwill from the government
paint the lakes with cherry noodles
and bless our parents routines
till then it's bad television
fast food
and wishing to be anywhere else

G. Carroll
