 The second crime I ever committed 

Was convincing the other cheerleaders 

To moon the referee.

I thought he would want to see,

But he did not.


Sexual harassment is any unwanted sexual attention.


But how do you know unless you try?


And herein lies the double bind:

For any first attempt is still

As “any” as “any” overkill you’d ever do,

And so it’s better if they come to you,

And then their attempt can be construed

As wanted or unwanted.


So, you’ve heard about my second crime.

Do you have time to hear about my third one?
