EUROPEAN

he undresses like a European

without modesty on the beach

in downtown Ft. Lauderdale

then again so do I

and I was born here on this very ocean

so I have no excuse I just

wanted to feel the salt water on my body

before he kissed me

he told me I look European

and I knew he meant it

as a compliment by the way

the corners of his mouth twisted

when he said it
