Manga Man
sexy, smile, sunset
July man, so I had to let you go
back outside, if you must know
met a new guy after my show
brother so fine, flirt, flick, and flow
strolling uptown, cameras round our necks
great conversation, nothing like my ex
sexy, smile, sunset, soft, wet
kissing on my neck, so hard, but not yet
smooth brown face
art studio, silent space
a little dirty like the way we talked
damn I even like the way he walked
was that confidence real or manufactured?
deep dialogue dripping with loads of laughter
anime, America, and spirituality, not giving a fuck about formalities
had me floating for a minute there, until I realized the realities
he showed me every single piece of art he made himself
from abstract paintings on the wall to sculptures on the shelf
I gave him praise where it was due while trying not to gas
but when I tried to show him mine, he showed himself an ass
I don’t think he did it…
