I remember those cheers, they still ring in my ears

After years, they remain in my thoughts.

Go to one night, I took off my robe, and what’d I do?

I forgot to wear shorts.

I recall every fall

Every hook, every jab

The worst way a guy can get rid of his flab.

As you know, my life wasn’t drab.

Though I’d rather hear you cheer

When I delve into Shakespeare

”A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse”, I haven’t had a winner in six months.

And though I’m no Olivier

If he fought Sugar Ray , he would say

That the thing ain’t the ring, it’s the play.

So give me a stage

Where this bull here can rage

And though I could fight

I’d much rather recite … that’s entertainment.

there is another part, not so secret. the part that touches fingers when one passes the cup and saucer to the other. the part that closes her neckline snap while waiting for the trolley; and brushes lint from his blue suit when they come out of the movie house into the sunlight.

i envy them their public love. i myself have only known it in secret, shared it in secret and longed, aww, longed to show it — to be able to say out loud what they have no need to say at all: that i have loved only you, surrendered my whole self reckless to you and nobody else. that i want you to love me back and show it to me. that i love the way you hold me, how close you let me be to you. i like your fingers on and on, lifting, turning. i have watched your face for a long time now, and missed your eyes when you went away from me. talking to you and hearing you answer — that’s the kick.

but i can’t say that aloud; i can’t tell anyone that i have been waiting for this all my life and that being chosen to wait is the reason i can. if i were able i’d say it. say make me, remake me. you are free to do it and i am free to let you because look, look. look where your hands are. now.

In any case, with something like amazement, he’d said, ‘Your eyes are like mint leaves.’ Had she answered ‘And yours are like the beginning of the world’ aloud, or were those words confined to her head? Did she really drop to her knees and encircle his leg, or was that merely what she wanted to do?
