I was listening to an interview with the author Michael Gurian today who stated that boys often act more aggressively because they are more emotionally fragile, that even the Y chromosome is more delicate, so I jotted down this quick little poem.

Roll a glass in

broken glass and then

You’ve made a Man

You can shatter it

at any time

and only

nick your hand
