Circumvent

I found out
that I was circumsized
when I was forty,
so that knowledge
took a long time
like the way
that the child
who I was
went indoors
to the mind field
and talked
to himself
that was not
like he was
in the world
that people think
like buttons
being pushed
by Zen guys
who he sat by
in the industrial job
that girls sweat at
in their pants
like us men are

after dinner.
