A Man Grows Hard With Time
A man grows hard and bitter
with time
too much time on his hands
and little to do than
break the backs of being
and chew the marrow
between
the wages of sin
and summoning
the dogs of war
But in the arms of a woman
he'll soften inside her,
spent
like a swollen night,
a sky full of stars.
