Virgin

by BOB GALLO   Sep 28, 2022


There are no bite marks on his apple.
His toys are still in their boxes
as his canvas is unstained
and unpainted.
The imagining paths never walked,
the dots of games never connected,
the mazes never ventured, never centered.

His fashion shirt, is never worn,
never torn.
The roses of his heart
never climbed the ladder of thorns:

He saved himself,
by wasting it.
