PERFUMED BAR

They may be arbiters of good taste
and denounce my aesthesis or ignore
what I created all these years:

there's poetry in failed ejaculation
or cowardice in a woman's company
not all will dare to talk about

it's weakness which stares in the face
when truth is wrapped in silence and love
is negotiated in a perfumed bar
