When a man cups his balls


When a man cups his balls
It's an act of prayer,
Like the comfort of walls --
Just knowing they're there.

    This whole spate of poesy was surely inspired by Abrahamson.

    He takes a bow. The crowd roars...no, wait, that was the Scooter. Could Rizzuto believe his luck? I'll bet all his life he woke up smiling. That's why we love him, because all his life he couldn't believe it was happening to him, the little immigrant boy.

    Hält ein Mann seine Eier in die Hände
    Es ist ein Akt des Gebet',
    Wie der Komfort der Wände --
    Allein das Wissen, die beide noch steht.

    -sounds almost like Goethe

    When a man palmers his balls,
    should he putt or reach for a woody?

    sighed,
    not a golfer
