This Charming Man I’m Tom, age twelve, On my bicycle, I’d fly over the bike bridge to the school.     My retainer flew from my mouth, And I let it lie on the side of the road.     My buckteeth flung themselves from my mouth, My ears shot from my head like handles And my nose was a blob.     Tom, will you go out tonight?     Age fifteen, In the back of her car, I tried it, just because—Sharon.     Because boys get with girls, right?     Even ones like Medusa.     Age sixteen, I found I had the love life of the octopus, Groping and grappling, And after, slunk sideways back to my home.     I would go out tonight, But I think I’ll pass.     Just because.     Age fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, Erica was with Sterling All those years, And I was on the sideline.     • We all grow older.
