i'm a girly boy, or go have carnal knowing of yourself Arnold
   
"Man loves little and often, woman much and rarely." --Anonymous
"Men wonder when and where, women wonder why?" --Billy Joel
? . . . cannot find it for accurate attribution, not exactly a paraphrase, but if Billy didn't say it he should have.

If I choose to remain celibate it is not for the want of a man, woman or sheep
it is that a prophet in his own home is a fool to the mate, qualities lost in the quantity of mechanics sustaining a life together
& i for 1 am driven to distraction by the thesis that marriage is 'divine' or the ideation of Mary Magdalene & Jesus as an item
Yet sighting either or both together or individually I sense we miss the point: attraction, desire, contractual/covenantal consummated, children or none the goal ideally and in time is Friendship otherwise marriage is a legal real estate issue only successful if renewed daily
Or is it that we sell our lifetime for a pot of lust then buyer's remorse?
or marry because it is expected as normal
4 me the issue best told is two individuals
whole complete able to love the other
to the extent of letting them be
themselves with or without
the other
free to leave and return or not.
In point of Order women mature early accelerating into truths unimaginable to boys who lag behind and usually die at adolescence regardless age fame accomplishment or wealth otherwise -- unspeakable acts crimes against women and mankind can never be justified by custom, ethic or morals situational or institutional
in the end rushing towards us not a rogue comet but simply the fact we've been fruitful and multiplied beyond the capacity of this bus regardless who sits in front or back
nothing save God is forever we know this as fact
unknown to the tribes that established the ideals
way back when there were far fewer of us
or are we no more divine than cancer
& i 4 1 love much and rarely a few close
to me in this place and time
does this make me a pansy queer or a 'girly boy' true to the ideal of the greatest love is forgiveness and acceptance what is better qualified as tolerance
might is not right it is ridiculous

--Charles Baudelaire
