The First Time
The first time
was with a pretty
Afro - American woman
out of doors in a park
We were both 16
and she seduced me (thank goodness)
The others in the park called out
"He's going to make you into a slave"
didn't intend that
The summer ended
as did my experiences with sex
Now I sit in Union Square park
watching a man feed the birds
I would rather call them rock doves
Pigeons on the grass alas
while my mind drifts back to
THE FIRST TIME
