PC Police. That's disrespectful of religion. You're busted. Up against the wall, hands behind your back. CLINK. All right, now we're going to beat the s**t out of you until you tell us where you got that website.

well that's new and different and really funny for me because it doesn't offend my cherished beliefs whatever those are but I'm sure you'll get hate mail from someone especially with a funny name like Karma :-)

AT THE GYM by Mark Doty This salt-stain spot marks the place where men lay down their heads, back to the bench, and hoist nothing that need be lifted but some burden they've chosen this time: more reps, more weight, the upward shove of it leaving, collectively, this sign of where we've been: shroud-stain, negative flashed onto the vinyl where we push something unyielding skyward, gaining some power at least over flesh, which goads with desire, and terrifies with frailty. Who could say who's added his heat to the nimbus of our intent, here where we make ourselves: something difficult lifted, pressed or curled, Power over beauty, power over power! Though there's something more tender, beneath our vanity, our will to become objects of desire: we sweat the mark of our presence onto the cloth. Here is some halo the living made together.
