Even at the moment
  of kissing a girl
     because
I was a boy--
  there was always
     another boy
looking to see
  how long
     I could place
my lips
  on her lips
     without stopping
without ever knowing
  I was kissing
     And then
what to tell the guys
  coming out 
     of their coats,
asking, How'd it go?
  Meaning:
     did I get any?
Why don't you
  just get laid?
     my father said.
