A man

A man leaning on the hearse, smoking a cigarette
A man pushing his granddaughter in a stroller
A man begging for money or a cigarette
A man stepping into a locker room shower
A man on skies just before his broken leg
A man spray-painting graffiti and midnight
A man watching his son be born
A man shooting up drugs in an alley
A man skiing his wife’s nipples
A man leading a protest march
A man drinking alone at a bar
A man confessing his sins
A man chatting on a dating sight
A man with a bullet in his gut
A man sitting down to dinner with his family
A man on the phone with his mother
A man who looks much older than he is
A man who loves to cook
A man eating ribs at a truck stop
A man dressed like a woman
A man in very soiled clothing
A man hiding from the police
A man with a braided beard
A man who can’t dance at a disco
A man with a wad of big bills
A man missing a limb
A man playing flag football
A man just arrived from Somalia
A man wondering what it means to be a man
