He wants me to know him by the size of his fish, his fodder, the scales, the shimmer, the shimmer. His pants. His pants are smeared with blood. The skin is clammy, febrile. Perhaps a record. Weigh it on the docks. Arms full of fish, long hairy, exuding salt, sulfur of marsh grass. His leg is cocked like Donatello's David. Eyes: heavy lidded. Shutters clatter shut for lunch/siesta in Italian towns. This is no rainbow trout. Place it on the scales of infinite justice. Precision. Count the scales. Yes, we have a record. Bring it on home; bring me the bacon, the love, bring it to me: the blood, the bacon, everything. Everything, he whispers, is under control. Heat up the court bouillon, Baby, I'm coming home tonight. Wear that red sequin halter with the tight jeans. He washes away the blood, ices the monster of the deep.

He wants me to know his sisyphean efforts, the weight of his penis, how it shimmers when wet, how it whimpers when denied. He is lugging a cross of his own making. And the effort, at times herculean. He is like a woman who's inflated her breasts past skin capacity. She feels the pull of skin, the burden of largess. He wants the release, to be unleashed during siesta, the bacon fat of lust. I should judge him. His pants smeared with blood. Perhaps a record. Iwo Jimo, raise the flag. Place it on the scales. Yes, we have a record against a questionable background. This fish, you'd like to throw back, ice the monster of the deep.
