In this bronzer age of cliché
Men and women are spangled genetic machines.
We know that.
Taking chances put genetic lines of us in a lissome interpretive state (birth).
Function varies widely.
So our utterances are for sale. I’m intensely delighted, taut-
But-relaxed. Meantime I’m exposed, unspooled. Thus this is not a test.
I could see up to their clavicles, Marines and the police
Were wild one lane over, so I was arrested.
