One thin monkey on my back I held him to feed and nursed him to fat even as teeth nibbled me to the raw I have one thin monkey and laugh when he gnaws as if I were tougher than he. |

i'm what some people call "slender." me, i just call it what it is and say i'm skinny (though, with my wife's cooking, not as skinny as i used to be) back in the day, i used to tell people i was wiry. in fact, that's the truth of the matter - lean and sinewy... but you know what? when i want something to move, it moves. i'v often heard the phrase "you're awfully strong for such a skinny guy" small doesn't mean weak, eh? btw - i saw the title and started laughing. |
