“No Girls Allowed!”

“No Girls Allowed!”

wonder what

men say

when they’re away

from the wheel

leaned over the bed

of a Tonka truck

boot on the back bumper

spitting over their shoulder

laughing like teenagers

just turned 16

kings of the court

baseball braves

football phenoms

rock star waves

comedian crazed

wonder what

men say

do they whine like women

gossip like grandmas

argue like lawyers

curse like sailors

what is it

they’re trying to convey

as they talk and talk and talk

gasping for breath

punching at wind

recalling where all they’ve been

who, what, when

this universal thing

that draws men in

and keeps ‘em fountain fresh
