Free Advice Poem by Randy McClave

She said that for me she had some advice
I excitedly asked her what was the price,
Her reply was simple, "it is free",
And only because I am a typical he.
I then became curious why it was not for sale
And also why did it pertain to me being a male,
Was it because of my stature and my strength
Or maybe because of my power and my length.
She told me the advice was simple and step by step
I thought I could always do one more lap, or another rep,
Or maybe it was a new way to clean my clothes
Or maybe a better way for me to pose.
I thought about the advice that she wanted to give
Maybe it was for a happier life for me to live,
Then to her I said, "to accept your free advice I can"
She then smiled and said, "it is how for a boy to become a man".
