Bald boys - 
and I have had enough.
Whatever delicatessen
a bald boy wishes, I'm
there like a sparrow, cutting,
wiping white buns with mayo
thick as fresh bedsheets.
Whatever sport any bald boy watches,
I'm there with a Watchman
tuning in broadcasts
for boys watching men toss
balls as bald as bald boys' heads.
