Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

They Call Me Sexy Dolly

"What does it take to lose a man?" I asked to no avail   
flat chested me in answer to, "Don't put yourself for sale"     
the surgeon did the breasts, the testicles went west    
in retrospect I wasn't ready yet, to tell the world "I am"    

And so I danced all night in poling fashion sleek    
beneath the neon lights a feminine mystique    
but when the lights went out at night   
I barely won the fight ...  

Oh how I wish I had the balls to tell them who I am 
they call me Sexy Dolly, yet I fought for Uncle Sam 
my mind said,  "you are out of range "  
and so my voice went strange  


"why don't I have the balls, 
to tell them who I truly am? "

The End.
