Sweat Or No Sweat

Do you really think

that just because

you play in a band

in your underwear

with way too much whiskey on board

that I’ll go home with you

take off my clothes

assume the position

and give something of myself to you.

God, I’ve done that.

Man, I can’t do that again.

I use to be the stalker

The one with the swagger

The lonely gait

Walking up to break you

Not to tease

but to promise

for at least one night

But now I know

a little bit of something about me

I get lost in the sweat

It becomes my longing

My addiction

Even if you suck

Swapping fluids at my old age of 3+3

Just makes me want to find out more

Not less like before

Do you really think

it’s such a great idea

taking me home

walking around inside of me

and then walking me back to the curb

in an hour or two

I’m done with that scene

Band or no band

Briefs or no briefs

Sweat or no sweat

But I did

think about it
