light the New World's Fair
or will his torch flame

who by now we all must surely know
bows to no one who can't play at all
yet plays alone with smallish balls

who deals with egomania
by hiding out where Don can't find
the inner reaches of his mind

or will I recognize
it was all about his size

Allison Goodnight
tattoos at midnight
on bulging brawn
the promise of dawn
