for my brave, loving uncle

For you uncle Jim. FOR YOUR GUTS AND COURAGE . For teaching me how to play pool! this sweet uncle is just for you

My uncle was handsome without fail pristine...
My lord his nails were better kept than mine, all filed and finished with clear polish for that high end shine!..... and  with a display of camp showmanship, he would say.... “my beautiful Dani, am I not just divine?”
I never thought, wondered or question why....but now looking back with some clarity in mind I did remember, Yes Marilyn received a lot his time!
Apparently that’s a small kinda tell tale sign but sweet uncle you stole, a small time thief, life had just been revolved around crime.
I guess it was just a little naive, but in the 1980's being that way, you were hushed, silence ..you absolutely must not say!
It must have been tough dear uncle to have had to hide who you are
Held back, restrained, no potential  or hope to ever go far.
My sweet dear uncle, walking in on you getting dressed... terrible scars
boiling milk had been poured on your chest! I wonder how you contain that all real deep inside....I reckon that somewhere deep inside you swapped it all for that fastidious pride!
the super snazzy dresser,  the timeless perfecter!
I love you so much, still really do, my sweet loving uncle
I’m so very proud of you
