1960's edited version

Movie: 'Alice's

Restaurant,' eighteen

Year olds paraded

Down hallways in briefs.


Seated at desks to

Fill out paperwork,

Sent back on lines which

Intersected lines.

 

Lines formed in front of

Urinals, their flow

Filled containers marked

With their names, numbers.



Mark checked lost and found

Box for underwear,

Cartographer of

Bleach resistant stains.


Lifted a Speedo

Hooked in locker to

Dry, someone's jockstrap,

Sizes no matter.


Back home, naked, slipped 

Them on, fingered frayed 

Edges, smelled chlorine,

Sweat, saw owners' shapes.



Elementary

School classroom boys sent

To nurse's office,

No explanation.


Told to pair up in

Doorless cubicles,

Strip to underpants,

Called in one by one.


'Sit on table,' nurse

Took notes, male doctor

Examined, told each,

'Lie back,' briefs tugged down.



Larry locked them in

His bedroom, both got

Down to underwear,

Charles lay on his back.


Larry climbed over,

Push-up position,

Lowered his crotch 'til

Cotton rubbed cotton.


Eyes closed, both silent,

Friction effected

Elongations, a

Leakage of fluids.

Boys spread out on clean, Bathroom floor, turned to Face walls, bent over, Untied their shoes, stood. Unbuttoned dress shirts Which they draped on shoes, Followed by t-shirts, Grabbed gym shirts off floor. Unbuckled, unzipped Their pants, let them fall, Pulled on their gym shorts, Stepped into sneakers. Ed had two sons in High school, year apart, Commuted to work, Back late, wife deceased. Gave them free run of House lower level, Bedrooms, bathroom, den, Side door to outside. Encouraged his boys  To be men, play sports, Proud of their bodies At paired physicals. Tom and Jim, not close Friends- bored- took a dare: Round of strip poker While parents away. Sat opposite, cards Shuffled, laid face-down, Cards ...
