my thirty-fours

wasting 
away in huge food and 
diet exercise, I 

gotta believe no way. These 
are my thirty-sixes. NO 
NEED to run a check 
on that - what is the
POINT, otherwise of

having two identical
(-otherwise) pairs of beautiful soft 
faded cadet blue (almost gray, no 
, grey to your eyes) shorts? 
please
no, please no "waistline"
-centric vanity way
way this late in the 
way, phase, stage
game

no-game, if so. 

Not after a lifetime of 
eschew to the point 
such metrics are 
and have been 

always 

wholly alien 
to you! 
you 

gallant scoundrel
