Bittersweet

Imagine being a boy
But not quite a boy
That transition stage
Of adolensence when
You are not man but not
Boy

Imagine being a man
But not quite a man
That transition stage
Of adolensence when
You are not boy but not
Man

My brother, my sweet
Sweet brother once said
I don't see a man, when
I was that moment
Between

It sticks with you, those
Words

My sternum has calcified

I've been thinking about this for a few
Hours
My sternum turned to bone

All of a sudden

I knew a cat
With a similar
Condition

Sternum protruding
From his furry 
Chest

The vet said 
It was noting to
Worry

About

But I worried
And I am
Worried
