he wasnt in the habit of being anywhere

when someone posedoffered  invited him to a get together
                                                                  Who with
his first question
Where
When

should have been a dick
cut to the chase
times awastin

his social skills wandered out the backdoor some time ago
                                                               hed left it open encouraged them
Lettin our hair down boys Don have to jump through hoops nomo

no sooner than he stepped aside they hustledbolted out
                                                           hollering over their shoulders Seeya you big lug
he wasnt

his skills had no comparisons

a captive audience

he feigned well
                 though easy to fake Ignoramuses

some believe they were dinosaurs from the   . . . you know . Dinosaur Age . . yah . that.

   Which

Then.

The Mesozoic
                So which we talkin Triassic Jurassic Cretaceous hed bet if he were a bettin man Jurassic probably heardfiltered in Jurassic Park franchise
Yah, that one, it.

Jurassic

Sure.

couldnt stand watchin a dog chase its tail
                                              he let it go

it was a family invite
                       AH
tyranny of family
tough to sidestep

he had some remnantmodicum of civility  sociability
                                                         though razsore thin
chalkscribbled graffiti  a brick wall
talkin real thin

   he conceded

Ten A M
FUCK
       have to set an alarm
shower
   wash his hair
                   usually oncemaybe a week
usually brushed it out

in the shower the shampoo it leaked into his eye
                                                   he flashed back to being a boySOAP IN HIS EYE  BURN

but he wasnt a boy

it was delicious to have a flashback without aid of hallucinogens

                                     Treat yourself have another go

How can you possibly know you wouldn’t like a massage if you’ve never had one?

I don like to be touched

   You give monster hugs.
I do
      Hugs are brief

I don’t get it. A massage is so exhilarating.

Knock yourself out  Please yourself
                                         No thank you
Like that. No.

Just like tha
               Makes sense  Im surprised yare surprised

Makes sense, surprised, how?

Most things I do are solitary
                              Being touched is like being told a story have to suffer an audiobook I cant abide either  You know I write I tell the stories
                                    Why the hell woud I want to listen to one
Im a teller  Active not passive

There’s that, yes, granted, but I’m payin . .

         I swim laps Thas solitary  I write an read  Solitary
                                                                      I workout alone
Im NOT a team player

There’s that.

   Pretty fuckin  obvious

But . .
. . NO
