Bones girlfriend Gwendolyn
does the bump and grind
down at the “Gentleman’s Club”
here in the hood.  

She’s good at it,
and popular with the clientele.  

Bones always goes with her
to make sure the crowd
never gets out of hand.  

Bones is known at the club,
and everyone knows
he always carries his knife.  

Bones never has any trouble
taking care of Gwendolyn.

Bobby

Thanks WW,

Bones wishes that was always the case.  He's very glad for your kind words.  I'm glad you enjoyed the poem.

everyman has his Gwendolyn
he feels the need to defend.
It's the White Knight instinct
in most men, kicking in.
Bones is a Lion.

It may not be the best world for anyone but Bones is a survivor.  This poem made for an interesting read.

It's a fine-line to what we consider tresspassing. Bones definitly has a different view of "personal space" when it comes to Gwendolyn.  For some it's just a job... nothing personal... but woe be to the man who takes advantage beyond prescribed boundries.

"We'll chase them like rats across the tundra."

Thanks Earl,

I’m glad you found the poem of interest.  It does Bones good to look after Gwendolyn, as he doesn’t always have a chance to look after himself.

Thanks Andrew,

Now isn't that the way it should be, the boy looking after the girl.

Honor is alive, and well in all socioeconomic groups.
