too in poetry

for men
we are expected to claim horniness
as our driving force
when loneliness
is the measure of our frustrations
because that's supposedly stronger
I guess

break it down and pretend
that it's just a physical need
animal wiring
like being hungry
or tired

primal
basic
quanitative and not
qualitiative

it's bullshit, of course
but it's part of the kabuki
we're supposed to go through
I mean
getting laid would be nice too
but that's the key word
too
