Portable, Adjustable, And Omnipresent

________________________________________________________________________________________________

I've got a man cave
in my pocket
and I never 
need to 
lock it

It's with me
wherever I go:
to the store,
to a diner 
or a show

At an early age,
something I did find
was
 varied and delicious
contents of mind
 
Be it baseball,
bagels or James Brown
I can be smart,
stupid
or play the clown
 
Acute or obtuse
I could be 
tight or loose
lasso
or noose
 
Put me 
in the shade 
or the sun
dress me dapper
or like a nun
 
None will ever know
—regardless of their size—
 the panorama
behind
my eyes
***

    It sounds like your man cave is sometimes a woman's cave.

      Oliverio says:

      Guilty as charged but man cave
      is a very marketable term.
      As for the other gender, the corresponding term
      is a woman's intuition
