Funk and Wagnalls def. “n. Lack of courage in the face
of danger, pain, opposition, etc; unworthy timidity.”
Its been a good few years since I was acquainted with
a woman, early thirties, one child, a boy, divorced.
During the time I knew her she had breast implants
and a ring through one nipple.
I’m as much a tit guy as anyone, but I’m rather
old- fashioned in my way and I don’t think one
should fuck with Mother Nature, she might fuck you back.
I’m fond of saying “a woman is not a tit”, in fact I wrote
a blog about it[never published].
I’m not implying cause and effect, but as it turns out
this woman fell victim to inoperable cancer of the breast
which had metastasized.
That I could not bring myself to visit her in hospice
until the bitter end was an act of cowardice,
which I knew then and know now, I could not
stand the pain, yet I do not believe that I am
so much different than whoever might read this.
