A Poem by Gregory Laynor

IN THE LANGUAGE OF REAL MEN

Aloha elegant gunfire men
Father me online language
Fuel the anagram engine
Then file an analog genre
Men flee eating granola
A hot Reagan enema
A lean fuming grantee hole
Oh genteel managerial fun
Anal hoagie gentlemen fur
Reanimate a flung on Hegel
Negate a long fern email
A flannel Goethe mega ruin
A naughtier fallen genome
Engulf a gelatin menorah
Alienate mean hung golfer
For a rough gentle finale
Amen
