wolf shirts

I love people who wear wolf shirts

almost like natural armor
plating their vulnerable chests with
faded thin dyed cotton.

Guys who wear wolf shirts
do not drive a new Audi
and do not see the point
of a smart car.

Guys who wear wolf shirts
begrudging shave
but, as a stand off statement,almost political,
grow their mustaches into handle bars into goatees.

Guys who wear wolf shirts
like domestic
rather than overinflated import
beer.

Guys who wear wolf shirts
sign the backs
rather than the fronts
of cheques.

wolf shirts define class
in North America.
