He

Like many who twist and stare,

Hide behind the frosted glass over there

Just before entering the cabaret

That’s so bold to advertise its men on display.

He

Cannot defy his beating heart any longer,

But, detests its desires, only to grow stronger,

Ashamed to face the self in the mirror,

Just before the image becomes clearer.
