Grille



I'm a tusker that overflows his chair.
I grunt and scratch my belly, my balls,
My hoggish head. My tits -- what a pair!
Somewhere my soul flops, a blind fish, appalled

At all this skin and hair. I felt her once,
Packed up tight against a red rib, in pain.
So I poked her with my thumb, virtue's dunce!
She vanished, I think, into marbled meat, slow veins.

I used to say, 'Boys will be boys', but there's something to be said for Grills being Grills. That's what the Fairie Queen told me.
