For those of us
who think we know what we’re doing
and for those
who understand that we don’t.
Hey man, just shop until you drop
don’t stop
and don’t let your bubble get popped
love to rock
then roll
and make sure you be extra bold with it
whip it
crash it
wreck it
get naked
whatever’s clever, brother.
You know what I’m talkin’ ’bout?
Fuck it!
It ain’t nothin’ but pussy.

Under Pressure
I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO.”
That’s what she told me. This was several years ago in the prime of my modeling career. I was twenty-seven years old and on a break at a photo shoot in Cancun, Mexico. We were relaxing at the beach on a beautiful late afternoon right before the sun had gone down over the Gulf of Mexico. The sky was light blue mixed with fluffy gray clouds and a fading orange sunlight. The sand was warm, and the slight breeze was just enough to get your attention but not enough to cause a chill. The entire scene was as beautiful as a naked girl in a perfect picture. And I was loving every minute of it.
