I’m older now
the fun has long been gone
ladies not interested anymore
no longer that tan muscled beach man
when I did work
was paid under the table
or worked as a gigolo
the women down on vacation loved to play and pay
no security net
now work at a small Miami Beach motel
Cuban locals visit on weekends
I take care of the pool
put the mats on the lounges
Hey Mr.
I need another clean towel
cannot afford to rent a room
I sleep and eat in a shoe box size pool side cabana
barbeque at night
alone
watching the ocean and moon
