I
pick up an
electric
bass

hang it around
my shoulder

heavy heavy board
cold against my thighs- stroke
meaty strings

immediately
like masturbating

love it

explains
a lot-
why
men are
intimate,
wild with
guitars-

pure
sex

say to
Mikel
feel like a guy-
the guy part
of me
is coming out
she
says no
it's because
you haven't seen
enough
women
guitar players.

Yah.
