HIS ILLUSTRIOUS MANHOOD*

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 38

core strength
tightly coiled
by commanding flesh
with concise
gentled mind
caressing words
sipping at rhythm
biting into rhyme
concrete intellect
unapologetic
yet fierce
magnet and force
to the weaker
willed
female and male alike
but mostly female
males merely admire
females swoon
and make fools of
themselves to
the detriment of their
own ruin
in his distant eyes
lust is dismissed
appreciation
wholly unappreciated
such near puritanical
ways are almost
sweet in their surprisingly
stark display
ya gotta love his heart
cause
sometimes
'His Illustrious Manhood'
gets in even his own
way............................

Author's Notes/Comments: 

bear with me, I have found a mysterious ton of poems I have not posted. I have a select few squirreled away in a storage email box I use for a specific reason I have not posted those but it stuns me that I have so many more that I was totally unaware of. I am near speechless.
