“ Growing Clout “

Growing clout
grinding
down critics

waiting it out
weary eyes
warm smiles

dating profiles
visual delight
risking reuniting

expressing ourselves
and our beliefs
largely unimpeded

not yelling either
eerily ordinary
midstride midlife

more than slight
dreamlike at daylight
luminous advisors

putting logos
on condoms
arrows on target...
