My Father's Closet
I took every pair,
even though you didn't leave them to me.
They're tight in the crotch.
an area you pretended didn't exist
like that bar on the other side of town.
Your denial was a shield used
to bash the world, but no sword;
nothing about you was sharp.
Still, these pants fit better
than any dress you bought for me.
