Boys are Boys because

Boys are more concern

with their muscles

they can not resist the run

it's all just boyish fun

boys kills more

creatures then girls

they tear off the

light of firefly

and wear it as a ring

boys are not mean

they are inquisitive about

creep crowing things

they are allowed

to get dirty

boys will play

with toy dolls and

toy guns just for fun

they love the

new electronic gadgets

boys learn to

hold their tears

to bite down

on their pain

they think girls

are wearied

in a girlish

kind of a way

boys like to

go fast to

give it all they got

on the swing

from which they jump

in mid air

and sand box

pouring sand into their hair

boys collect

natural things

like sea shells

and rocks

and stamps from overseas

boy takes the time

to closely examine things

boys are impatient

they have energy to spend

boys loves to throw

the farest the best

and boys like to bet

boys aren't afraid

of bad words

you will hear them

on their lips

boys can be cruel

to cats but hold

dogs with respect

boys look more

closely at dead things

and ask you why

the hark got

a pigeon in his mouth

boys like to play

will splashes in puddles

of dead rain

boys like to

explore far

and near

boys must be taught

to pull back and wash

the foreskin

boys will walk

the tight rope

of what it means

to be a boy

and they will

shadow box

and wrestler

with their friends

boys will pick a fight

to see how

far they can push

and pull the hair

of little girls

to say I like you

boys will shoot birds

with their bb guns

and break windows

with their balls

all in all

boys are made by

and boys are taught

that man knows best

without a doubt.
