more people
     walking
          by

the problem
     with that circle
          that
               bum

is

i want to touch
     and she’s gone
          long gone

and if
     i’d touched
          she’d have hated me

i’m not very good
     as a nuisance
          a stupid

is that my ego

oh for FS
it was a bum
i couldn’t touch

it happens
everyday

put up with it
i do
get on with life
we all
should do

be allowed to do
be allowed
the lady with the bum
be allowed
to get on with life

this sexuality’s
a damn nuisance
well
it’s the conscience
the conflict

i think
i prefer
to have it
than not

older boys
won’t get that
that than

than claiming
my ego
is greater
than letting
someone else
get on
with life

even
someone else
with a perfect
circle
bum
