It's Dark And Hazy Because I'm Lazy + Ego-Crazy BUT Humble

There were about thirty boys

posing for the yearbook

class picture

 

Brother Lester 

was our 

Home Room teacher

 

Only six boys

are in this

fifty-six year-old image

 

With a Sal Mineo

scar on my face,

I cropped out

everyone else

out of humility

 

Even the best-looking

of the rest

was a mediocrity

in comparison

to the brown-eyed

handsome boy

with his Sal Mineo

scar

 

It's bad enough

I make

Larry, Carl, Barry

Perry and Terry

 

Look like

Pillsbury Dough Boys
