Love Poem: Manly Men

Manly Men

I love manly men.
I love men in tartan kilts
who wear them effusively.
What is under them?
Do they wear short pantaloons
that will not show under kilts?

Or just in the buff
that will allow air to flow
and cool what suspends beneath?
Regardless, I love
manly men in tartan kilts
who move with cool confidence.

I toast Scottish kilts,
and the bare-kneed manly men, 
and Gael clans to which they’re bound.
May they never lose
their bold, cocksure demeanor 
and ever display their plaids.
