Young Bones
has been taken down
and used
so many times
he’s lost count.  

If you asked him
about his first time
he’d just look at you,
turn away,
and try to change
the subject.  

He’d really
not even want to
think about it,
let alone
talk about it.  

Bones just
can’t remember.

So don’t bother asking.

Bobby

Thanks dear Bloodline,

What you say is very true.  You've hit the nail on the head.

Love Bobby

Bones is perhaps the most courageous boy I've seen. Sometimes it takes more courage to keep only yourself in torture and not try to bring others into it with you. Bones is most certainly someone I would like to spend time getting to know.

Thanks Yann,

The secret to Bones success is that he always makes sure he gets paid.  That makes him feel satisfied.

Thanks for your thoughtful words.
