POETRY
Body Language

More greased bodies. More blow jobs in Munich. Sprayed-down models for the single sleeve photo with garden hoses. Retracting the no synthesizers pledge. The Solid Gold Dancers!

Arrows on Freddie's touring outfit all point to his cock. Go back and toss salads on 53rd Street, a congressman's old apartment.1 Freddie as precursor to Michael Jackson. Freddie and Michael kissing in L.A.

Not making Thriller, coke on his nose. Michael angry, wiping his mouth.2
